Hammarby's start to the season has not met the high expectations of the team.
Hoping to get a positive reaction, Stefan Billborn made four changes in the starting eleven compared to what it looked like in the losing match against Malmö FF last time.
Among others, Alexander Kacaniklic and Darijan Bojanic were benched. In their place, Abbe Khalili, who was back in the starting eleven for the first time in four matches, and the talent Aimar Sheer got the chance.
In addition, captain Jeppe Andersen was back from suspension and it was he who showed the way when Hammarby took the lead half an hour into the match.
After a quick throw, the Dane pushed the ball into the penalty area and released it sideways to Gustav Ludwigson who from close range splashed up 1-0 in the net behind Oscar Jansson in the ÖSK goal.
- We create goal chance after goal chance and should score more goals. If we continue to create like this, we will hopefully close this match, said Gustav Ludwigson in D play's half-time interview.
Ludwigson's words also became reality because directly in the second half, Mads Fenger put 2-0 after Abbe Khalili deliciously spliced a corner.
Hammarby continued to have full control of the match and with a quarter left to play, Abbe Kahlili pounded in a free kick via Oscar Jansson's hands to 3-0 which was also the final result.
