Draw in Stockholm Derby - Penalties Decide

Match Highlight

In the 86th minute, Djurgården took the lead with a penalty that was saved by BP’s goalkeeper. Olivia Ulenius struck the penalty to the left, giving Blå Ränder a chance to overtake the table leader BP. But BP responded quickly with a later penalty, which brought the match back to a draw.

Engman's Nervous Save

Adelina Engman had to take two penalties in the same minute. The referee blew before the ball went in on the first penalty, so Engman had to retrieve the ball and retake the penalty. She placed the second penalty in the goalkeeper’s left corner and secured a draw in the 90th minute. Engman commented: "It was an important penalty to take. Then having to take two was extra nervous. Still, it was harsh. We create many chances, but we don’t get the reward."

Result and Table

The match finished 2-2, meaning BP retains a one-point advantage over the tenth-placed Djurgården. Despite a strong second half for Djurgården, it was not enough to secure victory in the Stockholm derby.
