All-Swedish restart after the summer break for Djurgården and BP. Then it was Djurgården who clearly started the best at home on Stockholm Stadium. After ten minutes, Djurgården's Shinomi Koyama rounded the goalkeeper and got close to an open goal. But defender Sara Olai threw herself and blocked the ball to a corner.

A corner that Djurgården utilized. Louise Hvarfner nodded in 1–0 after ten minutes. Before the half-time was over, Djurgården had expanded to 2–0 since Koyama had pressed in a goalkeeper return.

In the second half, BP played themselves up and in the 55th minute came a beautiful reduction. The 18-year-old talent Tuva Ölvestad drove forward and thundered in a cannon shot from outside the penalty area.

In the 77th minute, BP equalized. Johanna Svedberg kept herself forward and pressed in a pass.

The turnaround was completed then in added time. A BP pass was swept into the penalty area to Ölvestad who played forward to Olai who made the match-deciding goal.

3–2 to BP after a strong turnaround.
