League Play-Off

Solberg
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Sebastian Ekeroth started the match with the kick off. 3 minutes into the match, Solberg's goal looked a bit too open when Edwin Eliasson came free, but Mikael Vacker reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 13th minute Sebastian Ekeroth shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Johannes Ståhlman saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 15th minute, Marcus Fribäck 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. Ivar Kihlberg took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 20th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Johannes Ståhlman. Granbergsdal IFK's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Mikael Vacker took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Evert Sörman, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Dennis Asklöv kicked well hit freekick during the 25th minute of the match. Håkan Skoog sent away a hard shot on goal in the 32nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Edwin Eliasson hit a great freekick 33 minutes into the match. Håkan Skoog could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 44th minute of the match, but Johannes Ståhlman made a huge save. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Evert Sörman made a kick off. 54 minutes into the game, one of Solberg:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. In the 56th minute there was a penalty for Granbergsdal IFK. Mikael Jernberg stepped forward and shot the ball to the right of a diving Mikael Vacker. 0-1. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Evert Sörman in the 60th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Mikael Vacker saved Solberg from getting behind. Håkan Skoog fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 65th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Johannes Ståhlman having to interfere. Edwin Eliasson charged in rather forcefully in the 68th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Edwin Eliasson the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. The supporters of Solberg booed when Granbergsdal IFK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 68 match minutes in a wonderful position. Edwin Eliasson didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Håkan Skoog had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Tobias Rudqvist fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 74th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Mikael Vacker having to interfere. Evert Sörman might have been able to make a better finish in the 76th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Mikael Vacker. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Evert Sörman ran back to his position shaking his head. Marcus Fribäck struck a weak shot in the 81st minute. Johannes Ståhlman didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Solberg. Solberg's Håkan Skoog got a good chance for a goal in the 83rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. With his leg Mikael Vacker managed to avoid a goal in the 86thth minute, when Granbergsdal IFK's Tobias Rudqvist fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Johannes Ståhlman didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Håkan Skoog went, in the 87th minute, to the upper right corner, 1-1 was the resulting score. 97 minutes into the game, Tobias Rudqvist cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-2. Mikael Vacker was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Granbergsdal IFK succeeded in salvaging a draw, even though Solberg had controlled the match.
