Råsunda Stadion
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. Tord Hedbom started the match with the kick off. After 10 minutes of play, Forsbacka RK's Konrad Pettersson made it 0-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Joseph Haström was left in no man's land by his defense there! Joseph Haström took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Konrad Pettersson, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 23rdth minute of the game Tord Hedbom who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Forsbacka RK's Sven-Åke Sandström was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. In the 23rd minute, Anders Bergkvist hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 31 minutes into the match, Allmänna Idrottsklubben's Olle Nyman sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Sven-Åke Sandström narrowly saved just below the crossbar. In the 35th minute, one of Forsbacka RK:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Forsbacka RK. Sven-Åke Sandström had in the 39thth minute some difficulties stopping Marcus Alströmer's well aimed penalty as it nearly passed him on his left side, but he still managed to hold the ball. After some careless play in the Forsbacka RK defense, Marcus Alströmer kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Sven-Åke Sandström. The Forsbacka RK fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Sven-Åke Sandström should have stopped the shot. Sven-Åke Sandström made a fantastic save in the 45th minute, when Olle Nyman sent off a good shot on target.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Anthon Bratt stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. When Anthon Bratt came up free with the goalie in the 55th minute, the Forsbacka RK fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Anthon Bratt couldn't finish the play. Allmänna Idrottsklubben's Joseph Haström proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 57th minute of the match, managed to save Allmänna Idrottsklubben from getting a goal against them. In the 60th minute Olle Nyman shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Sven-Åke Sandström saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 61 minutes into the game, Evert Hamnberg was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Forsbacka RK's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Allmänna Idrottsklubben the free kick. Evert Hamnberg kicked well hit freekick during the 61st minute of the match. Tord Hedbom sent away a hard shot on goal in the 65th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Sven-Åke Sandström came out of the goal in the 74th minute to try and stop a shot by Allmänna Idrottsklubben's Olle Nyman. But to his dismay, Olle Nyman quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-2. In the 78th minute, Inge Mårtensson hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 80 minutes into the game, Anthon Bratt cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-3. Joseph Haström was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. When Karl-Åke Wallman fell near the penalty area in the 84th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Allmänna Idrottsklubben's protests and gave Karl-Åke Wallman a yellow card for diving instead. Joseph Haström made an important save on a dangerous shot by Anthon Bratt in the 92nd minute. In the 92nd match minute, Allmänna Idrottsklubben was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Algot Johnsson to maneuver through the defense. Olle Nyman fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 97th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sven-Åke Sandström having to interfere. The Forsbacka RK supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Forsbacka RK would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
