Modesto's perfect strike saves AIK

· updated

The new AIK coach Mikkjal Thomassen has now two straight wins. Thanks to Rui Modesto for that. The 24-year-old's full hit meant 1–0 against Mjällby.

Thomassen began his AIK stint with two straight Allsvenskan losses against Gais. But now he has got "Gnaget" going.

At home against Mjällby, it was a 1–0 win. This after a brilliant full hit in the 56th minute from Rui Modesto. The Portuguese received the ball from Anton Salétros and hit on the half-volley via the crossbar.

A goal that became the match winner.

But it was extremely close to an equalizer from Mjällby three minutes later. Tom Pettersson headed from close range, but Kristoffer Nordfeldt showed good reflexes and was able to save.
