It's really tough. We're not having a good match today and they are much more aggressive than we are. Then it's hard to win the derby, says Linköping's Sara Eriksson to Viaplay after the match.

If the midfielder thinks there's something the guests could take with them from the match?

Right now I don't know what it would be. It feels heavy. We have to lift ourselves properly.

Linköping has only five points after 14 played matches in the women's all-Swedish league – eight points up to Brommapojkarna on qualifying spot.

In the other end of the table, Malmö FF took an expected victory against AIK with 2–0 and thus catches up in the tight struggle. The Skåne team is third – one point from leading Häcken.

A Häcken that in the second half in the meeting with Växjö showed champion pace when they increased the 1–0 lead both one and four times up to the final result 5–0.

In Stockholm, Djurgården and Vittsjö had to share the points, 1–1.
