Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Alvin Bivall made the kick off which started today's match. Roy Uggla hit a great freekick 2 minutes into the match. Viggo Heggert sent away a hard shot on goal in the 6th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 7 minutes into the game, Jan Axelsson was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Örviken IK's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Vankiva the free kick. A collision led to Örviken IK getting a freekick after 7 minutes play. Jan Axelsson hit a great ball. Viggo Heggert fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 8th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Kennet Ahlstedt having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Örviken IK's Maximilian Nyqvist got a free kick in the 10th minute. 21 minutes into the match, Linus Ström had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Sixten Pettersson. Vankiva's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Linus Ström was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. After 27 played minutes Vankiva got a freekick which was hit by Björn Lindström. Alvin Bivall sent away a hard shot on goal in the 28th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Alvin Bivall had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 30th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, Örviken IK's Gustav Vibjörnsson got a free kick in the 40th minute. The corner first didn't look so dangerous but when Lennart Haegg got the ball he succeeded in some way to get through the defenders to deliver a very hard score. Result 1-1. 43 minutes into the match.

The wind increased when Viggo Heggert made the kick off in the second half. In the 51st minute, Linus Ström got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Alvin Bivall struck a weak shot in the 54th minute. Sixten Pettersson didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Örviken IK. During the 70th minute of the match Jan Axelsson completely mistimed his tackle and brought down his opponent. The referee gave Jan Axelsson a yellow card, his second in the match, which meant he could no longer take part in the game. In the 71st minute, Jan Axelsson hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 74 played minutes Örviken IK got a freekick which was hit by Johannes Hård. 77 minutes into the match, Örviken IK's goal looked a bit too open when Viggo Heggert came free, but Kennet Ahlstedt reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Örviken IK's Kennet Ahlstedt played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Magnus Rosen in the 80th minute of play. In the 82nd minute Magnus Rosen shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Kennet Ahlstedt saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Linus Ström fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sixten Pettersson having to interfere. Viggo Heggert sent away a hard shot on goal in the 86th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Jeers came from both ends of the stadium when the final whistle went. Neither team had looked impressive and the draw seeemd a fair result.
