Niklas Svedberg was reported to the Disciplinary Board after the match against Luleå yesterday. Now comes the verdict. Djurgården's goalkeeper is suspended in two matches after striking one of the referees.


After the brawl that broke out after the first period, Niklas Svedberg should have hit the linesman Anders Jansson with the shock, which resulted in a swollen lip.

The judge himself states in a statement:

“On his way forward, he pushes away and meets me who is trying to walk between and disrupt the noise and thus do my job. He hits me with his shock glove on his face, the hit touches his lip. Svedberg's actions are irresponsible and he does not respect my presence and his actions result in a swollen lip. "

Now comes the judgment of the Disciplinary Board. Svedberg will be closed until March 10. The suspension corresponds to two matches.
