Norrköping's all-Swedish nightmare season continues.

After a late goal conceded against Västerås, the team is now last in Allsvenskan.

The match looked long to end with a draw, 1–1.

But then the ball landed with Herman Magnusson outside the penalty area, who slammed it in. 2–1 to Västerås and joy for the home team.

For Norrköping, the loss means the team is now last in Allsvenskan.

It's clear that it's extremely, extremely tough when they score in the 90th minute. It's an incredible shot he gets. So it's incredibly tough feelings right now, says Norrköping's Christoffer Nyman to Max.

It was also dramatic in the match between Häcken and Elfsborg. Elfsborg won 5–3 away – after no less than three goals in stoppage time.

Stable win for Djurgården

In another part of Allsvenskan, Djurgården played steadily against Värnamo and won 1–0. The winning concept was the strong defense.

It should be tough to score against Djurgården, says Djurgården's Marcus Danielsson in Max.

Through this win, Djurgården went up to second place in the table again. A success factor is the team's strong defense. In fact, Djurgården has only conceded twelve goals this season, which they are best at together with leading Malmö.

Marcus Danielsson, who was back after an injury, explains in Max why it's so hard to score against Djurgården:

We put in an incredible number of running meters and sacrifice ourselves for each other. It should be tough to score against Djurgården.

This is what Värnamo experienced when they visited Stockholm.

Djurgården controlled the first half and the strong defensive play made it difficult for Värnamo to get to finish.

Nice goal

A security bonus for Djurgården was also the leading goal, which Deniz Hümmet made in the 16th minute. He got a powerful shot, a few meters outside the penalty area, and the ball went into the cross. Unstoppable for Värnamo's goalkeeper Jonathan Rasheed.

In the second half, Djurgården played safely and Tokmac Nguen also had a rib shot in the 67th minute. In the end of the match, Värnamo went for equalization and just before the end of regular time, Gustav Engvall had a good chance. But no closer than that did Värnamo get.

Sunday's last match: Kalmar 0–1 Brommapojkarna.
