Nikola Vasic has made his best season in his career and won the Allsvenskan top scorer title with 17 goals. But in the last round, bad luck struck and it is now clear that the BP forward tore his cruciate ligament.

It's tough, of course. This type of anti-climax doesn't even happen in movies, says Vasic to Aftonbladet.

The 33-year-old was substituted in Sunday's match against Malmö FF after a duel with Isaac Kiese Thelin. Now Vasic, whose contract with Brommapojkarna expires after this season, will be away from the football pitch for at least half a year.

I'm counting on being ready after the summer break, that's my goal anyway, he says.
