Spectators: 7747 (Terracing: 5812, Seating: 1781, VIP seats: 154) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Lautaro Martínez took the kick off in the first half of the match. After some careless play in the AIK FOTBOLL defense, Lautaro Martínez kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Arne Kilström.
