Both teams came from overtime losses from their recent meetings.
But Rögle had an advantage - they have won the last five matches against Luleå.
Tonight that suite was broken.
But it was Rögle who would take the lead.
Adam Tambellini scored his seventh straight goal when after a fine finish he set the lead goal for the guests in the first period.
But with only tenths, Linus Omark made sure that Luleå had 1-1 in the period break.
Others ended up speechless.
And if you ask Luleå's coach Thomas Berglund, the home team was better.
- We lead the game, we are closer to second than they are, he says to C More.
Berglund was right.
When half the period was played, the home team would set your lead goal.
Joonas Rask scored his second goal of the season when he shot the puck into the goal with a clinical shot.
But with a little more than a minute left, Anton Bengtsson stayed ahead and set up the equalizer - which meant that the match would be decided in overtime.
With only seconds left of extra time, Julius Honka would decide for the home team, the match ended 3-2.
- I think it is a good match for us.
We play intensely and only continued in the third period.
There were two good teams that met each other.
I'm glad we find a way to win, says Honka to C More.
