We die again after the first goal. He shoots behind the extended goal line and it goes in. We think it's Soviet that's playing. I don't understand that we can die after a goal, it's too bad, says LHC's assistant captain Fredrik Karlström frustrated after the first period, to TV4 Play.

It was 0–3 already after 13 minutes of play. And despite the coach Mikael Håkanson trying to get the team going for the second period, Skellefteå could make it 4–0. Additionally, Linköping's defender Theodor Lennström received a match penalty after a crosschecking.

Horribly bad, says Håkanson about the team losing so many close combat, to TV4 Play.

If you lose all close combat, it becomes impossible to play a good match.

Linköping is last in the table.
