0-0 at halftime.

But directly in the second half, Djurgården took the lead.

New acquisition Santeri Haarala played forward to Patric Åslund, who took the ball with him and placed it behind Jakob Tånnander in the Sirius goal.

Ten minutes later, Patric Åslund had another ball in goal – which bounced off the crossbar down inside the goal line. However, the referee team missed this, not seeing that the ball was in, and Åslund and Djurgården did not get their 2-0 goal.

The ball track is so clear, but everyone makes mistakes, it's just strange that all four yellows (referees) don't see it.

Too bad the referees didn't bring their glasses with them in the second half, says Djurgården coach Thomas Lagerlöf according to Sportbladet.

Luckily for Djurgården, 1-0 was enough for them to take all three points back to Stockholm.

Sirius created several chances in the final minutes but failed to break their goal drought.

Allsvenskan's second-place team Dif, with one game less played, now has a seven-point lead over table leader Malmö. Sirius is in ninth place.
