At halftime, Häcken led 1–0. But in the second half, a more lively IFK Norrköping stepped out – and could turn around and win after two goals in three minutes.

Häcken's goal came after half an hour, and as so many times before, it was Felicia Schröder who was present and struck. The 18-year-old was the fastest forward on a rebound and scored her 22nd Damallsvenskan goal for the season.

With an hour played, the equalizer came from Norrköping through Ebba Handfast. Just three minutes later, the lead goal came when substitute Dana Leskinen scored 2–1. The same Leskinen received her second yellow card and was sent off in added time.

The 3–1 goal came on a penalty that Wilma Leidhammar managed.

The home team's final push was enough for a couple of good chances, but no goal.

After Malmö's victory earlier on Saturday, the loss means that Häcken is now third in the Damallsvenskan, however, with one game less played than the leading Hammarby. Norrköping is now seventh in the table.
