Problems setting the chances - and hard to keep close. This is what the summer has looked like for IFK Gothenburg.

It continued in the same style against Falkenberg.

IFK Gothenburg has only kept a clean sheet once in ten attempts in this year's Allsvenskan. It also did not succeed in the home match against the team that is last.

And as often otherwise, we got to see lots of chances, but few goals. In the end, all misses led to two points disappearing for "Blåvitt". This despite a 2-0 lead with more than 70 minutes played.

- It feels like we had good control of the match, but then we lost more and more and let go of cheap goal chances. It was punished, says substitute Jakob Johansson to Dplay after playing his first Allsvenskan match in almost six years.

Each giant rescue

Nor did an early 1-0 lead make the goal scorer loose for IFK Gothenburg.

Patrik Karlsson Lagemyr's exact pass cut through Falkenberg's five back line and came perfectly for the running Giorgi Charaisjvili. The Georgian needed two tries before he put the ball after a goalkeeper return.

The goal came in the ninth minute. The rest of the match contained a large group of goal chances for Gothenburg - and also a number of great positions for the bottom team Falkenberg.

Two left hands helped keep the numbers down. Giannis Anestis and Viktor Noring each made a palm save where it would have been a goal with more average goalkeeper performance.

Mattias Bjärsmyr also had a header on a corner where the ball was perhaps past the goal line before Falkenbergsbacken Carl Johansson cleared away.

But in the 54th minute there was no doubt that the ball crossed the goal line. Hosam Aiesh got a chance to level the score as Sargon Abraham suddenly found himself free with only the 'keeper to beat, but the finishing shot hit the bar.

Dream goal behind the turn

Then the chance swamping continued - by both teams.

When Blåvitt then looked to gain control and move towards a convincing victory, Edi Sylisufaj suddenly slammed in 1-2 on a phenomenal volley from 20 meters. And in extra time, Carl Johansson nodded in the receipt.

IFK Gothenburg can in any case be happy about a potential key player's comeback.

In 2007, 17-year-old Jakob Johansson won Swedish Championship gold with Blåvitt as the youngest ever Swedish champion in football. Ten years later, he pushed Sweden to the World Cup in the playoff freezer against Italy. Since then, his career has mostly been about cruciate ligament injuries, back problems and rehab training.

Against Falkenberg, he made his first Allsvenskan match after almost six years abroad in Greece and France. The return to Gamla Ullevi's grass came in the 68th minute.

Jakob Johansson took his favorite position in the central midfield - and had to take part in losing a 2-0 lead to a draw.
