Djurgården had the chance to take back the league lead and pull a little in the all-Swedish gold battle when Halmstad visited.

And it did not look too bright at first.

The guests started strongest and had the sharper chances.

But Blåränderna came into the match and was leading the game.

With a little more than half an hour played, the home team's most dangerous chance came.

Magnus Eriksson got past the HBK defense and into the penalty area.

Once there, he recorded to a flying Joel Asoro, who failed to get the ball on goal.

And it was not always easy to get past the tight defense.

- They are well located in their blocks and make it crowded for us.

We have to play a lot outside, so we have to try to punch holes in them in the middle, says Hampus Finndell to Discovery +.

Chilufya avgjorde

The blue stripes opened strongest in others and put pressure on the guests who fell back deep into the defensive game - which they had a hard time getting past.

In the end, however, they got past the defense after several attempts.

And with was someone who would be decisive in the thrilling gold battle for Djurgården, it was the Stockholm team's very best goal scorer.

Edward Chilufya.

Team captain Eriksson recorded for a well-placed Chilufya, who reached forward to push the ball behind the goalkeeper to the match's first and only goal.

Djurgården collected three points, and is thus a new table top.

Malmö, which plays tomorrow, is close behind with two points behind.
