Örebro Ends 314-Day Winless Streak with Victory Over Östersund

Örebro has broken its gloomy streak in Superettan. In the 22nd round came the team's first win of the season (2–0). Incredible relief, says the goal scorer Kalle Holmberg.

Finally, Örebro could leave the pitch as winners in Superettan.

The team thereby took a possible last lifeline in the battle to avoid relegation, after a win at home against Östersund.

Ahmed Yasin initiated the goal scoring when he sprinted away and made it 1–0.

After just over an hour of play, it was time again when Kalle Holmberg easily scored 2–0, which became the final result. It was Örebro's first win in a league match since November 3 last year (2–1 against Helsingborg).

Two in a row now! Now we are red-hot, says Holmberg in Max's broadcast and refers to the win against Syrianska in the Swedish cup.

Holmberg means that the trust remains in the squad, despite the tough season.

We have a good vibe in the team despite being where we are and we will do everything to secure it (new contract) during the remaining rounds.

ÖSK has eleven points, two more than the bottom team Umeå. Up to Trelleborg, on a qualifying spot, it is six points. The Scanians have, however, one match less played.
