Bersant Celina, 27, started on the bench, but was replaced almost immediately when AIK’s Abdihakin Ali was injured after just seven seconds.
After an uneventful first half, AIK’s Omar Faraj drove the ball up from half the pitch in the 57th minute. Faraj passed Ismaila Coulibaly who laid the ball up to Celina who had a dream hit just outside the penalty area.
1–0 to AIK and Bersant Celina’s first goal in the black and yellow shirt.
In the 75th minute, Omar Faraj offered the delicacy of the match when he dribbled away Djurgården’s team captain Marcus Danielson with a fine spin.
Just before he was intercepted by Lucas Bergvall, Faraj got the ball to Celina who found Ioannis Pittas.
Pittas then chipped in 2-0 for AIK in an open goal.
Djurgården pressed for a reduction, but never came closer than a crossbar hit from Tokmac Nguyen in the 86th minute.
