League Play-Off

Forza Bajen Arena
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Ingvar Ekenberg took the kick off in the first half of the match. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Bo Bengtsson during the 3rd minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. A collision led to Tokarps BK getting a freekick after 3 minutes play. Bo Bengtsson hit a great ball. If Rickard Löfgren had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When Ingvar Ekenberg came up free with the goalie in the 22nd minute, the Forza Bajen FC 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 Ingvar Ekenberg couldn't finish the play. Aron Mattsson showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Bo Bengtsson in the 25th minute of the match. Tokarps BK's Ola Sjögren proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 33rd minute of the match, managed to save Tokarps BK from getting a goal against them. With a little luck, Tokarps BK's Ola Sjögren got control of the ball when Gilbert Sörman tried to sneak it across the goal line. Gil Varela sent away a hard shot on goal in the 48th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Forza Bajen FC made a substitution. Peter Lennartsson replaced Rickard Löfgren. The fans had the chance to grab some refreshments as the whistle went for half-time. The score stood at 0-0 after a close first half.

The wind increased when Gil Varela made the kick off in the second half. Ola Sjögren took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Peter Lennartsson, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 58th minute Knut Jonasson shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ola Sjögren saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The supporters of Forza Bajen FC booed when Tokarps BK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 58 match minutes in a wonderful position. Jan-Olof Sundström didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 67 minutes, Ove Telin mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Tokarps BK and the Forza Bajen FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. 70 minutes into the match, Tokarps BK's goal looked a bit too open when Peter Lennartsson came free, but Ola Sjögren reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Ola Sjögren came out of the goal in the 71st minute to try and stop a shot by Forza Bajen FC's Christer Sjöström. But to his dismay, Christer Sjöström quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. Gil Varela charged in rather forcefully in the 84th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Gil Varela the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After a rather tough play, Tokarps BK's Gil Varela got a free kick in the 85th minute. Jan-Olof Sundström hit a great freekick 87 minutes into the match. Aron Mattsson made an important save on a dangerous shot by David Grönlund in the 93rd minute. After 97 minutes of play, Forza Bajen FC's Sven-Edvin Benet made it 2-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Ola Sjögren was left in no man's land by his defense there! There was no doubt that Forza Bajen FC were the better team. Forza Bajen FC's players enjoyed the ovations of the crowd after the victory.
