Hacken 3-2 Hammarby, comeback win keeps Sirius title race alive...

Allsvenskan lit up on the last matchday before the July break, with 18 goals in just 3 games. Hacken fought back to beat Hammarby and stay second, right behind leaders Sirius, before the World Cup break. Meanwhile Vasteras hosted a nine-goal thriller as Goteborg came out on top.

Unbelievably, Vasteras drew level halfway through the second half. They worked the ball in from the left, Jens Magnusson squared it to Taonsa Axel, and he stayed calm in front of goal to grab his second and make it 4-4.

With 11 minutes left, Goteborg snatched it back. Heintz got his fourth in an insane game. A free kick was cleared out to the Norwegian 25 yards out, he controlled it and curled a shot around the keeper into the far corner.

That stunner won it for Goteborg but they’re still in the bottom three on goal difference only. Vasteras drop to 11th after their two-match unbeaten streak ended.

Goteborg Edge Nine-Goal Vasteras Thriller To Stay Unbeaten

Vasteras and Goteborg served up Allsvenskan’s second nine-goal game of the season. Unlike Hammarby’s 8-1 blowout of Orgryte, this one went down to the wire. Goteborg stretched their unbeaten run to three, but they made it harder than it needed to be.

Goteborg struck after just 13 seconds. Noah Tolf launched a long ball down the left, Tobias Heintz burst in behind the defense too easily and finished. Heintz made it 2-0 seven minutes later, volleying home from close range after Sebastian Clemmensen flicked a header across goal.

The visitors were 3-0 up inside nine minutes. Another ball over the top caught Vasteras sleeping, Rockson Yeboah fed Adam Bergmark-Wiberg, and he let it bounce once before smashing it into the bottom corner.

Vasteras steadied themselves and hit back with two goals in three minutes before the 30-minute mark. Simon Gefvert cut the ball back from the right for Karl Gunnarsson to finish calmly, then Mikkel Ladefoged nodded in Marcus Baggesen’s near-post corner to make it 3-2.

Vasteras’ fightback looked wasted in the 37th minute though. Bergmark-Wiberg slid the ball in low and Tobias Heintz tapped it in at the far post for a brilliant hat-trick and 4-2.

But Vasteras weren’t finished after halftime. In the 53rd minute Gunnarsson drove through the middle and slipped Taonsa Axel through to score, cutting the gap to 4-3.

Hacken Rally From 2-0 Down To Keep Pace With Sirius

Nothing changed at the top of Allsvenskan. Sirius still lead by eight points after Hacken came back from 2-0 down to beat Hammarby. The win meant Hacken didn’t lose any more ground on the leaders before the break.

Hammarby arrived on a two-game win streak, and it looked set to continue. Victor Lind took Paulos Abraham’s pass, cut inside and smashed one in from 20 yards after nine minutes. He made it 2-0 on the half-hour, drilling another shot from the edge of the box after a poor Hacken clearance.

The game flipped early in the second half. Victor Eriksson brought down Silas Andersen in the box and Amor Layouni converted the penalty. Ten minutes into the half, Andersen wiped out Hammarby’s lead completely, dribbling through the middle and placing the ball into the bottom corner.

Hacken completed the comeback 11 minutes from the end. Adrian Svanback reacted quickest to Julius Lindberg’s cutback, getting in front of the Hammarby defense and slamming it home from the edge of the six-yard box.

That result leaves Hacken with five wins and five draws from 10 games so far. Hammarby slip to fourth after another loss this weekend.

Degerfors Fight Back For 2-2 Draw With Brommapojkarna

Degerfors pulled off another home comeback to grab a point vs Brommapojkarna. BP struck fast as Mads Hansen scored in the 2nd minute, then Simon Strand made it 2-0 seven minutes after halftime.

Four minutes later Strand went from hero to villain. His own goal pulled Degerfors back into it, and Marcus Rafferty leveled at 2-2 in the 63rd minute.

The draw snaps a two-game winning run for the Bromma Boys. They stay 7th, just three points off the European spots. Degerfors remain 12th, winless in six but four of those are draws. Allsvenskan now breaks for midseason and returns July 3.
