Missed penalty and red card for Blue and White in Gothenburg derby

A missed penalty, a red card and two goals conceded. IFK Göteborg had a tough time at home against Häcken in the Gothenburg derby in the Swedish football league. The away team won 2–0.

Häcken decided the match with two real cannon goals at Gamla Ullevi. Gustav Lindgren made it 1–0 in the 17th minute - he finished off an attack that started with a goal kick from goalkeeper Andreas Linde.

In the 84th minute, Mikkel Rygaard volleyed in to make it 2–0 after a counterattack.

IFK Göteborg received a penalty in the first half, but Tobias Heintz shot it wide.

"You can only complain that they didn't award a damn penalty. It's too bad," Heintz told TV4.

In the 89th minute, Rockson Yeboah was shown a red card for kneeing Sanders Ngabo on the shoulder.

Västerås' Mikkel Ladefoged scored twice at home against Elfsborg, turning a 0–1 deficit into a 2–1 lead, but Ari Sigurpálsson equalized to make it 2–2 in stoppage time.
