– It feels fantastic. I didn’t really believe it and have to thank my own guys and villa. We will definitely enjoy and celebrate this quarterfinals. We have not been there directly in five, six years, says Hammarby’s coach Misja Pasjkin to Bandypul’s webcast,
“It was the worst half of the year,” says Åby’s captain Gustav Wallin after the collapse in the first half, which was lost by 7-1.
When the final signal went to Zinkensdamm, Hammarby did not know if the team had taken the last direct place to the quarterfinals. You had to wait a few minutes before it was over between Bollnäs and villa and the cheer erupted on the arena.
Bollnäs a goal from the quarterfinals
Villa won 6-5, where a cross had taken Bollnäs to the desirable sixth place that had given a direct place to the quarterfinals. Now Bollnäs gets to play the eighth finals.
Villa chose the winner of Gripen and Broberg for his quarterfinal opponent.
– We choose that, it will be enough, says Villas coach Pelle Fosshaug to Radio Sports without wanting to motivate his mindset.
Fosshaug also chose Sirius on his half in the playoffs, which surprised some experts. Sirius is an outdoor team that Villa lost during the season.
Consequently, Edsbyn got Vetlanda on its half.
