FC Rosengård took the lead in the 19th minute. On punishment. This since Vittsjö’s Paulina Nyström has been a little brusque against Fiona Brown.

Jelena Cankovic was the scorer. She tricked goalkeeper Shannon Lynn in one direction and put the ball in the other corner.

The equalizer came in the 39th minute. Since Vittsjö’s heavy forward Clara Markstedt has been taken seriously by the FCR defense. Fernanda da Silva set the penalty.

Shortly afterwards, FC Rosengård’s head coach Jonas Eidevall was rejected. Judge Sara Persson was determined and Eidevall had to sit in the stands.

After an hour of play, FC Rosengård made a triple change. In with Olivia Schough, Mimmi Larsson and Emma Berglund. Out with Ria Öling, Nathalie Björn and Fiona Brown.

With Mimmi Larsson on the field, it meant that Jelena Cankovic could take the step down to midfield.

The exchanges paid dividends.

Olivia Schough gave the visitors a 0 – 1 lead after 69 minutes with a superb strike from the right.

Sanne Troelsgaard then took advantage of defensive larvae in Vittsjö and scored 3-1.

With ten minutes left, one of the jumpers, Emma Berglund, was forced to leave.

05 Bea Beaung made her debut for FC Rosengård at senior level. She got a handful of minutes at the end.

On Friday, FCR plays its second group game match in the Swedish Cup – against Elitettanlaget Alingsås away.

The first quarter-final of the Champions League against Bayern Munich is in Germany on March 23 or 24.
