A crisp cold called over Stora Valla when Degerfors and Norrköping stepped out on the football field.
The home team longed for three important points in the battle to avoid a negative qualifying spot.
And it was a victory.
Distance shots became the last Degerfors goal
The red and whites showed game spirit and rolled out Norrköping when they won 4-1, which means that the team is now stepping up on safe ground.
Degerfors went on clouds in the first half and it did not take more than 13 minutes before they had cracked the goal zero.
The home team got a penalty and Johan Bertilsson stepped forward to take care of it.
And the striker was rock solid.
Bertilsson coolly set his third penalty goal of the season and driver seat for Degerfors directly.
Just six minutes later, another cold shower came for Norrköping.
Axel Lindahl got into the penalty area and nodded beautifully in 2-0.
However, the 1-0 shooter Bertilsson was not happy with a goal this Sunday.
Attacking comrade Victor Edvardsen spun up the Norrköping defense and then served Bertilsson who in turn snorted in 3-0 with a shot from the penalty area line.
The fantastic start would then be topped off with an incomparable finish.
Oliver Ekroth advanced centrally in the track and pulled with a heavy distance shot that beautifully whizzed past Oscar Jansson in Norrköping's goal.
One that was truly called duga.
Halmstad is knocked down
Norrköping scored a consolation goal with a quarter left when Jonathan Levi masterfully played until Carl Björk who could put in the reduction.
Halmstad will face Hammarby later tonight.
In the event of victory, the team once again drops Degerfors in a negative qualifying position.
