Amanda Johnsson Hahr started the scoring after five minutes with a giant shot and just two minutes later Ria Öhling placed in 2-0.

Kristianstad replicated in a flash and two minutes later Therese Åsland had reduced to 1-2.

Despite the goal, Växjö continued to play optimistically and the top team Kristianstad was by no means dominant.

Towards the end of the half, Kristianstad came in several counterattacks.

The closest was Hailie Mace who did not get to the finish when she came free with Katlynn Fraine.

Did not create much

In the second half, Kristianstad tried to get a draw.

But despite a certain game advantage, they did not create many chances.

Instead, Amanda Johnsson Hahr was close to deciding the match with a shot that licked Brett Maron's crossbar.

Kristianstad never managed to squeeze in an equalizer, but Växjö was able to ride out the storm and take three important and fair points.

The victory means that Växjö passes Eskilstuna and climbs over the relegation line, at least until Monday when Eskilstuna meets Kif Örebro.
