Spectators: 7392 (Terracing: 5546, Seating: 1699, VIP seats: 147) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Claes Tunander took the kick off in the first half of the match. When the match clock showed 8 minutes, the score became 1-0 when Eric Lundqvist sped through The Miracle's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Svante Hedman. If Claes Tunander had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Mathias Blom hit a great freekick 29 minutes into the match.
