The Allsvenskan top match between Djurgården and Mjällby ended in a draw. The teams had to settle for one goal each, but it could have been many more.

There were plenty of top chances for both teams, but poor efficiency and outstanding performances from the home team's goalkeeper Jacob Rinne and, above all, Noel Törnqvist in the Mjällby goal, kept the score down.

It's nice to make some sweaty saves, so you feel like you're part of the match, says Törnqvist to Max.

The two goals came six minutes apart in the first half. In the 36th minute, the away team opened the scoring, after a patterned attack that was finished off by Nicklas Röjkjaer.

Six minutes later, Djurgården's goal thief Deniz Hümmet scored the equalizer, which also became the final goal of the match.

The match ended 1-1, and Djurgården retained its third place in the table, and is still on the last European spot for next season.

At the same time, in-form Sirius took on BP at home at Studenternas, and took three new points. The match ended 3-2 to the home team, which climbs to seventh place in the table.
