AIK is ready for the semi-finals of the Swedish Cup.

Anton Saletros is praised after the victory against Mjällby (3–1).

– I get some Laudrup vibes, says expert Erik Edman.

The offensive pieces shone when AIK won the quarter-final against Mjällby.

Rui Modesto, Omar Faraj and Ioannis Pittas scored the goals in the 3–1 victory. Midfield star Anton Saletros was behind the third.

He was responsible for a delicious two-foot fine on the edge and sent the ball in for Pittas

– Incomparably beautiful. I get some vibes from Michael Laudrup, says expert Erik Edman in TV4.

Got a dream start

Anton Saletros praises the team’s defense after the match.

– We are good defensively, it looks solid there. It is difficult to get to Strandvallen and Mjällby are heavy and good with the ball. I think we are doing well defensively, he says.

AIK had a dream start to the match and scored two goals already in the first ten minutes.

– From there, AIK can gamble a little on results. The uphill will be too big for us, says Mjällby’s coach Anders Torstensson.

Just before the break, Mjällby’s Alexander Johansson reduced the penalty.

AIK is now ready for the semi-finals which will be played next weekend. Either Degerfors or Djurgården are waiting there.
