Silverholt with class goals - Know where the goal is

Finesse in many ways. Elfsborg excelled and scored a classy goal against IFK Göteborg. It couldn't get any better, said goalscorer Taylor Silverholt after the 2–0 victory.

Simon Olsson picked up the ball in the attacking half and quickly sorted through his options. He chose the most difficult option, the chip over IFK Göteborg's back line, as the best way to create a goal chance.

And it was the right decision.

It was evident when Taylor Silverholt got in behind. His teammate took the ball down on his chest and sent it in to make it 1–0 past goalkeeper Elis Bishesari in the 59th minute.

At first I thought there would be a signal for offside. Then I'm nine, I know where the goal is - so I just have to drag it there," Silverholt tells TV4 Play.

Olsson also had a hand in the next goal, making it 2–0 with 25 minutes remaining.

He sent in the cross that Júlíus Magnússon headed in, securing the full points at home in Borås.
