After an introduction in a strong headwind, Vittsjö came to Umeå with two straight victories, the only one of the season. But despite good form for the guests, it was Umeå who took all the points in the bottom meeting in the damallsvenskan. Emma Åberg Zingmark scored her first goal of the season to make it 2-0 in the 68th but Vittsjö resisted. Tove Enblom in the Umeå goal was forced to make a series of qualified saves to keep the home side intact.
After a goalless first half, the talented striker Therese Simonsson gave Umeå the lead. With a sea of space behind the back line, Simonsson had only one rushing Shannon Lynn in the Vittsjö goal left. A beautiful lobby later it was 1-0 to Norrbotten
In the 89th minute, Monica Jusu Bah was also able to definitely close the match with her first goal of the season. With the victory, Umeå rises to ninth place by nine points. However, the series is still even and it is only three points up to four Kristianstad.
