Aside from the poor results, Degerfors have also had a hard time scoring goals. Since the restart of the Allsvenskan, the team has failed to find the net.
Perhaps the goalless run would end on Saturday when they hosted Djurgården at Stora Valla. Degerfors were the better team for much of the first half, and Sebastian Ohlsson came close twice. But Degerfors' goalless run remained intact.
Instead, it was Djurgården who took the lead in the 43rd minute.
The away team - who are coming off a disappointing 0-0 draw against newcomers Örgryte - went on the counterattack, Bo Hegland broke free and scored to make it 1-0. The 22-year-old has been outstanding for Djurgården all season and has scored five goals and nine assists in 13 games.
We should be happy that we are leading, there is a lot we can improve, Hegland said at halftime on TV4 Play.
Degerfors created some good chances in the second half, and Djurgården were also close to a goal. But the final score was 1-0.
"I'll take three points away against Degerfors any day of the week," says Adam Ståhl.
