AIK is on to the quarterfinals in the Swedish Cup after defeating Kalmar by 3-1 in the crucial group game match at Skytteholm IP during Monday night.
The solar team had to defeat the small landers to advance and it was a 20-year-old Finn who was behind the triumph.
Saku Ylätupa scored his first two competition goals in the AIK shirt. The first just before the break after winning a melee high on the guests' half and then entering the penalty area. Finished inaudible for Lukas Hägg-Johansson.
The two came on freely since the new acquisition Jasir Asani played him in the 71st minute. The away team reduced shortly thereafter before Asani himself nailed the final result a few minutes later.
Ylätupa had a heavy last season, after arriving from Ajax's organization. There were only two starts and a total of 174 minutes.
Which AIK may meet in the quarterfinals lottery tonight.
