The goal came in the 52nd minute. After a corner, Botheim won a duel in the penalty area and was able to push the ball in from close range.
The Norwegian's fine goal-scoring form continues. Botheim ended the spring season with a hat-trick against Halmstad and has now scored his eighth goal of the season. With that, he is third in the Allsvenskan scoring table.
We have to continue to score three-pointers and improve match by match, Botheim told TV4.
Malmö have two straight wins and can start looking up in the table under new coach Gaute Helstrup. The coach followed Saturday's match from the stands, where he saw a Malmö side that should have put the game to bed in the second half.
Degerfors now has seven straight matches without a win.
