MFF is having a hard time finding the winning track again. Goalless at home against AIK it was a frustrating match and the distance is in danger of narrowing to the top of the Allsvenskan table when round 20 is completed.
Per Karlsson of AIK and Isaac Kiese Thelin of Malmö FF in a tough duel.
Team captain Anders Christiansen did not enter the game after being forced to retire due to a last injury against Örebro SK. Felix Beijmo was not on the squad due to illness either.
However, the profile of goalkeeper Johan Dahlin was back in the squad but Marko Johansson continued to gain confidence in the starting eleven.
AIK took the lead in the 22nd minute, when Paulos Abraham broke down the left and made it 1 – 0 with a low shot impossible for the keeper. But referee Kristoffer Karlsson dismissed the case. Henok Goitom was caught offside.
Great emotions came in waves when Isaac Kiese Thelin was overthrown by Ebenezer Ofori. A clear punishment meant the MFP, but Judge Karlsson acquitted.
MFF took over more and more and created strong pressure against AIK’s goal. Among other things, Ola Toivonen, team captain of the day, had a whimsical free kick right outside.
There was also a lot of MFP in the second half. Erdal Rakip fired just off the post after a quarter game.
A few minutes later, it was penalty situation number two for MFF. This time it was Filip Rogic who hooked Ola Toivonen. Judge Karlsson also did not ask for punishment this time.
In the 66th minute, Ebenezer Ofri’s Eduardo Alonso received a yellow card for going into a late challenge.
But somehow AIK managed to withstand MFF’s almost constant pressure towards the end. Not even ten minutes of downtime was enough. Franz Brorsson nodded that he almost decided the match.
AIK managed to delay the game all the time and Sotirios Papagiannopoulos also got his second yellow card and AIK ended up in the Stadium with nine players.
MFF had 30 finals in one hundred minutes of play. 22 shots in the penalty area, but only two goals.
