It is tight on both the top and bottom of the super-latch before the final rounds. Before Saturday’s meeting between the four Östers IF at the table and the table runner-up Halmstads BK, the teams were separated by eight points.
Earlier on Saturday, Jönköpings Södra only went 1-1 on the road against Dalkurd, giving Öster a chance to close the gap to table three, while HBK had a chance to take a big step closer to the Allsvenskan and advance to J-Södra in third place.
And it was the guests who started the best. Mikael Boman hit the ball into the box, turned around and sent it 1-0 in the 31st minute. A result that stood out in the middle.
A quarter of the second half, Andreas Johansson found Sadat Karim, who scored 2-0 for the guests. With ten minutes remaining, Halmstad received a penalty, a penalty handled by Samuel Kroon and it was 3-0 HBK, which was also the final result.
HBK is now one point behind Degerfors with four rounds to play. Until J-Södra, who has the qualifying position, there is a difference of seven points. Öster is four points behind J-Södra.
