Falkenberg, who is involved in the bottom battle, was in great need of three points away against Sirius.

The home team pressed but Falkenberg struggled.

But with a little more than twenty minutes left of the match, Viktor Noring had to capitulate in the goal when Elias Andersson got a real full hit.

Ten minutes later, the home team extended the lead through Stefano Vecchia.

Falkenberg's hopes were kindled when Edi Sylisufaj made it 2-1 with six minutes left to play - but they never got closer.

With Kalmar's victory against Gothenburg this weekend, Falkenberg is a new table jumbo.
