This week the Scania managed only 18 goals ahead in the home loss against Skövde.

Tonight the Icelanders Olafur Gudmundsson and Teitur Einarsson on the team offensively and it was double in the goal protocol compared to the Skövde match. Goalkeeper Leo Larsson also made a big game.

Symbolically important victory

Kristianstad played at a high pace and the sluggish Russians did not keep up. Chekovski Medvedi, who won the Russian championship 16 years on the rake between 2002-2017, was without a chance against the Swedes who made the best effort of the season.

For Ljubomir Vranjes and the players, who have received a lot of criticism lately, could not have made this success more timely. The victory is the first for IFK in this year's group play and means that the Russians go up to fifth place in the table.
