She aims to judge the Allsvenskan for men, but tonight at 19.00 it was time for Tess Olofsson to start a Superettan match.
Akropolis received AFC Eskilstuna and despite an early defeat, they turned within twelve minutes, between minutes 26 and 38.
The home team's goal was scored by Oscar Pettersson, Marcus Haglind Sagré and Nicklas Maripuu, before Wilhelm Loeper reduced the penalty.
There were no more goals and Akropolis has a hang on the Allsvenskan qualifier, five points up to - but one match more played - than Jönköpings Södra.
"Do not think so much about it"
But both before and after the match, there was a lot of focus on referee Olofsson, who speaks about the feeling after the final signal.
- It's fun, but I do not think so much about it.
You want to take the next step to the next series and try to reach the next goal - to become a regular in the Superettan and then get a couple of matches in the Allsvenskan, she says to Dplay and continues:
- Of course it goes very fast here with many technical and skilled players, but if I were to say hello to other female referees, it would be to dare to invest, gather courage and work hard to reach the next level.
Olofsson has refereed matches in the men's division 1. In December, she became the first female referee to be admitted to the highest referee training in Sweden.
