The victory was Linköping’s 14th of the season with seven rounds left to play in the women’s league and the hunt for Rosengård’s first place continues.
— We should just focus on our own game. And hopefully Rosengård loses points, says Vangsgaard.
For Eskilstuna, the loss means that they lose against the top three and are now ten points behind in sixth place.
Eskilstuna scored the first goal in the 22nd minute, but Linköping equalized just four minutes later. Vangsgaard headed the ball into the goal.
Eskilstuna then went into the half-time break leading after Noor Hoelsbrekken Eckhoff scored his second goal.
“Total Collapse”
After half time there was a big scene change. Therese Simonsson equalized six minutes into the second half, Vangsgaard made it 3-2 a minute later and later headed in 4-2. She then lifted the ball over Eskilstuna goalkeeper Milica Kostic to make it 5–2.
“We went out in the second half and showed that we are the best team and wanted to win,” says Vangsgaard.
Eskilstuna’s Felicia Rogic tells Viaplay, with a broken voice, that the team collapsed in the second half.
— It feels like a total collapse, they take advantage of their chances and then the game is basically over. We became passive and low-key, she says.
When asked if Vansgaard could describe her goals, she replied.
— I actually don’t remember all the goals. There are so many emotions when you score a goal.
Superior in the shooting league
Eskilstuna’s team captain Matilda Plan received her second yellow card in the last minute of the match, was sent off and thus misses the next match.
Linköping’s Danish shooting queen pulls away in the women’s all-svenskan’s shooting league. She has now scored 18 goals in 18 games. Kristianstad’s Evelyne Viens is second on 14 goals, who also scored four goals yesterday.
Brommapojkarna leave the jumbo place after 1-1 away to Piteå. However, they have the same points, eight, as 14th-placed AIK. Piteå is still in the middle of the table, currently seventh.
