Not a victory since May 22 and stuck in the Allsvenskan bottom.
But against strong Elfsborg, two points behind one Djurgården, they have gained a favorable starting position for the second half.
And the first goal came after an invitation from the guests.
Elfsborg's Christopher McVey passed the ball straight to Blair Turgott who could easily roll in 1-0 to Östersund.
A moment later, the Englishman did his second, this time on his own.
The 27-year-old sent off a cannon shot that found its way into the intersection.
At halftime, it was a grieving McVey.
- It's way too bad.
I'll do it, of course.
I fit right in with him, it's too bad, says Christopher McVey.
The match is in progress!
