Hacken 2-2 Sirius: Late Soumah Header Preserves Sirius Unbeaten Run
There was no fifth straight win for Sirius, but a leveller four minutes from time to keep their unbeaten start will feel like a victory, especially away at a Hacken side with two wins and three draws from five so far.
The hosts took the lead midway through the first half with a 25-yard screamer into the top corner from Mikkel Rygaard. It was 2-0 on 37 minutes when Brice Wembangomo played Gustav Lindgren through to finish in style.
But the Uppsala side had hope three minutes later when Robbie Ure stabbed home from six yards. After sustained second-half pressure, they finally got the equaliser when Mohamed Soumah headed in Neo Jonsson’s corner.

Kalmar 2-1 Elfsborg: First Win Since Promotion Lifts Kalmar Out of Drop Zone
Sirius’ lead at the top grew to three points after Elfsborg suffered their first defeat of the 2026 season, losing 2-1 to a Kalmar side that claimed their first win since promotion.
It looked like more of the same for both teams when Frederik Ihler opened the scoring five minutes in from Taylor Silverholt’s pass, but Kalmar struck back eight minutes later through Charlie Rosenqvist’s third goal of the season.
Charles Sagoe Jr set up the equaliser and provided the assist again for the winner just before the hour mark. His low cross was met by Anthony Olusanya, who got across his man at the near post to score from six yards. The win lifts Kalmar out of the bottom three, while Elfsborg remain second.

The reigning champions are continuing their recovery from a poor start and are now three unbeaten after two second-half goals saw off a Halmstad side that drop to last place.
Mjallby broke the deadlock 11 minutes after the break when the visiting keeper came out and failed to claim a high ball. It fell to Jacob Bergstrom, who tapped into an empty net.

Orgryte 1-1 Degerfors: Late Sana Penalty Earns Draw in Gothenburg
The final Monday game saw points shared between Orgryte and Degerfors, as the hosts ended a run of two defeats while the visitors went unbeaten in back-to-back games for the first time this season.
Degerfors thought they’d done enough to win after taking the lead with a quarter of the game left. Brilliant work from Nahom Girmai set up Gideon Yiriyon to finish. But with 10 minutes to go, Nasiru Moro brought down Noah Christoffersson in the box.
