Frölunda’s Carl Klingberg received a match penalty against Linköping

See the tackle that gave Carl Klingberg a match penalty in the player above.

After Broc Little scored 1–0 for Linköping at home against Frölunda, the away team’s Carl Klingberg ended up in the center of the action.

Klingberg tackled Little in the head, and the Frölunda player received a match penalty.

– He can’t tackle me like that, says Little to TV4 Play.

The expert: “Not looking to harm”

SVT Sports expert Jonas Andersson thinks the verdict was wrong.

– For me, it is not a expulsion and definitely not a match penalty. In my opinion, this is a collision, Andersson says and continues:

– Little and Klingberg go against each other and then it is actually Little who chooses to take a shot and swing. It is a natural movement when Klingberg raises his shoulder a little. He is not out to hurt.

Linköping was then able to win the match 3–0.
