When Blåvitt received visiting table-toppers Helsingborg, there were two injured teams in desperate need of points.

Giorgi Kharaishvili's lead came in the 11th minute. The outer midfielder scored seven goals for Blåvitt last year, but this year it has not come loose. The 23-year-old Georgian national team merited player got revenge from the latest snotty loss against Djurgården where he missed a penalty. Against HIF, he was served with a dream pass in depth by Sargon Abraham. Kharaishvili was in the wrong angle but turned and got to a distinct shot next to the post in goal.

Unusual location

Now IFK Gothenburg was in a, for the season, unusual situation. Namely in the lead, and early in the first half for the first time in this year's Allsvenskan.

But Al Hamlawi destroyed it.

- It was mostly instinct. If I come in, I know what I want, he says.

Before the match, Blåvitt had eight recorded points in seven rounds and needed three points in the hunt for the top. Table-toppers Helsingborg last won against AIK, played before that a draw against Djurgården, and hoped for a continued upward trend.

Blue and white seemed to hold the lead, there were chances and it was controlled.

"Olof decides"

But in the 91st minute came the equalizer. Assad Al Hamlawi had jumped in only ten minutes earlier and came in shooting position and did not neglect it.

- That's probably how it is when you come in new. I can not describe the feeling, he says.

If there will be a starting place now, he leaves unsaid.

- I do not know. It is Olof (Mellberg) who decides.
