Skellefteå took the lead in the first period when Rickard Hugg took care of a rebound and scored 1-0 for Skellefteå.
Although Skellefteå stepped up to a 2-0 lead in the second period, it was dealt a blow when Andreas Johnson left the bench in pain after crashing into the sideline arm-first.
Robert Ohlsson announced before the third period that Andreas Johnson had finished playing for this match.
And in the third period, Frölunda brought up 2-0 to 2-2 after two lightning-quick goals. Malte Strömwall made it 2-1 and just 94 seconds later it was equalized through Jere Innala.
Jere Innala’s backhand was the last goal after 60 minutes and the match went to extra time. Once there, it took just under seven minutes before Oscar Lindberg stepped forward and decided the match.
– A turnover for the sake of unusualness and we take care of it so it fits well. It will be the same hockey in Gothenburg, so it is important to find ways, said match hero Lindberg to TV4 after the match.
