Östers IF has been in a slump and before the meeting with Skövde AIK on Friday, the team had not won any of its last three games.
Now the Växjö team is back on the winning track, even if it didn’t start well.
Already in the second minute, Isak Bjerkebo sent in 1-0 for the guests at Visma Arena and the away team had bids for more.
But just before the break, Daniel Ljung equalized for the home team.
– It’s a weak first half from our side. They win second balls and the fight. That’s how they play and we knew that before. We have to be more on our toes in the second half, Ljung told Discovery+ during the break.
Just a few minutes after halftime, Öster completed its turnaround. Jesper Westermark in 2-1 from close range.
Öster pressed for 3-1 and had several finishes in the framework. However, the match ended 2-1.
– Really nice. Messy match, but nice that we got it done in the end and won the match, says Östers’ Adam Bergmark Wiberg to Discovery.
Skövde AIK coach Tobias Linderoth:
– We put in a good performance, especially in the first half. Damn unnecessary to concede the goal before the break, where we have a fixed situation and it will be a second ball. We’re really just going to take that ball away and then we’ll go into the break with the lead. Careless of us, he tells Discovery+.
The result means that Öster is currently in fourth place in the super league. Skövde AIK is still last.
