Häcken seemed to be heading towards a loss against Kristianstad.

But on added time, Alice Bergström scored 2–2 from distance.

Third against second in the Damallsvenskan. Then it was Häcken that took the lead in a windy Kristianstad. National team player Rosa Kafaji got the ball in the penalty area and pushed in 1–0 after 24 minutes.

Some concern in Kristianstad at halftime? Not really.

Kristianstad started the second half strongly as well. Something that gave results. First it was the penalty taker Tabitha "Tabby" Tindell who pulled it off with a long shot and equalized. Then it was Emmi Alanen who placed in 2–1.

When the clock was approaching the final whistle, the ball landed at Häcken's Alice Bergström, who from distance scored 2–2.

A little later, most people counted on Kristianstad to decide the match when Tindell got a completely open goal, but the shot went wide.

The result means that Rosengård leads the series with a seven-point margin down to second-placed Häcken. Kristianstad is one point behind Häcken in third place.

Another match was played on Sunday: Piteå defeated Vittsjö 1–0.
