Victory for table runner-up Djurgården. But Victor Edvardsen scoreless for the fifth Allsvenskan round in a row. - If people had only played the ball, I would have had three free-kicks in the first half, he tells SVT Sport.


Djurgården defeated Elfsborg 2–1, and is now closest and three points behind league leader Häcken.

Despite the win, striker Victor Edvardsen was slightly frustrated afterwards.

- I think that I run and toil quite a bit, but I don't get as much to work with as I would like.

It gets quite frustrated from my side, but we win and it's three points, says Victor Edvardsen to SVT Sport.

What is it that you wish to receive?

- More passes.

If people had played the ball, I would have had three free chances in the first half.

And it didn't come.

I hope we can address that when we watch video this week.

Edvardsen has left the last five Allsvenskan matches without a goal, the latest came in the 5-0 victory against Värnamo on July 16.

The goal distribution has been even better for him in the Europa Conference League qualifiers since then, where the 26-year-old netted three times.
