BK Häcken puts decent pressure on the competitors in the Damallsvenskan gold struggle. On away ground, the series leaders ran over Brommapojkarna with 6–0. Hammarby responded with a three-point win away against Vittsjö.

After the victory against third-place Hammarby in the previous round, Häcken has the SM gold in their own hands.

The pressure does not seem to be something that bothers the Hisings team.

Brommapojkarna on away ground was no concern. Already at halftime, the series leaders led with 3–0, where the nationally current Monica Jusu Bahs' long shot in the seventh match minute opened the goal protocol.

I was absolutely shocked. Shocked and very grateful, said the 21-year-old to Viaplay during the break about being selected in the new national team captain Tony Gustavsson's first national team squad this week.

The goal festival continued in the second half. Häcken forward Anna Anvegård scored a goal for the fifth all-Swedish match in a row. The result was written to a full 6–0.

League third Hammarby responded to Häcken's victory by taking three points away against Vittsjö. But it was not until the 67th match minute that the away team managed to break the zero through a long shot from the Norwegian midfielder Vilde Hasund.

With just over a minute left, Emilie Joramo secured the victory for Hammarby with the 2–0 goal, and the team thus climbed past Malmö FF on better goal difference.

Häcken leads the series with four points with three rounds left to play.

  1. Häcken, 55 points, 23 matches, (+62 in goal difference).
