Victory for Växjö: leave the battle below



[ad_1]

The bottom of the damallsvenska table is a veritable hornet’s nest. It has been clear for some time that Uppsala will leave, but it is not yet clear which team will accompany them.

A win against Eskilstuna was what was required for Växjö not to become that team. And they made sure they didn’t think too much about the uncertainty. The Smålanders claimed a 2-0 win after goals from Amanda Johnsson-Haahr and Nellie Karlsson.

Rogic suspended

Eskilstuna came into the game with a great break. Felicia Rogic, who scored two goals in the match against Djurgården in the last round and accounted for eleven goals in total this season, was suspended.

It was a goalless first half in which both teams had a hard time finding the right one. Only in the 59th minute did the first goal of the game arrive, a bit surprisingly.

Ria Öling ripped through Eskilstuna’s defense and sent the ball to Amanda Johnsson-Haahr, who tried to shoot from the penalty area and the ball hit the goal.

Eskilstuna is basically ready

After that, the focus was on not losing the lead, but in the 85th minute they took a corner. Ria Öling sent the ball into the goal area where Nellie Karlsson was well placed and was able to send the 2-0 volley, with the help of a less good intervention from the goalkeeper. They then stayed away and made sure to secure the contract.

Visiting Eskilstuna, in principle, has already secured a place at the damallsvenskan next season, when Djurgården and Umeå will score points when they meet on Sunday and have a real goal difference on their side.
