Skellefteå has started the year in the best possible way. 3-2 away against HV71, the fourth straight victory and the Western Bots thus solidified the sixth place in the league.
However, today's win was far in the end. It took 17 penalties before Oscar Möller could decide on JVM goalkeeper Hugo Alnefelt. When Axel Holmström then missed, the thing was clear.
- Fun with penalties. It's funny. We are making a really good away game today, goalie Gustaf Lindvall tells C More.
The home team otherwise took the lead in the match at the beginning of the second period through Simon Önerud. Before the hoarse Fredrik sounded, the guests had turned to 2-1 through Linus Lindström and Robin Alvarez. Eric Martinsson's 2-2 took the match to a scoreless extension before Möller then decided.
