2022-03-06T19:47:57.827Z

Tonight, IFK Kristianstad lost its first home match in the Handball League in over a year. Skövde won 33-32 - in a match that was played for the first time in October but had to be replayed after a big riot. Maybe it will be a replay again, as Kristianstad now wants to submit a new protest. - I think it is clear, says club manager Jesper Larsson.

In October, Kristianstad won 26-24 at home against Skövde.

At the end of the match, after a timeout, Kristianstad played with one player too many on the field for ten seconds.

It was discovered that Skövde's bench had sounded the alarm in vain.

In retrospect, however, they got it right, and it was decided that the match would be replayed.

Drama at the end

It happened tonight, when Skövde won 33-32 - Kristianstad's first home loss in the Handball League since February 2021.

If the result will stand this time?

We'll see.

After the match, Kristianstad opened to submit a new protest.

This after Markus Olsson in the absolute final stage of the match took charge to equalize, but got Skövde's Kristian Svensson's hands in his chest.

Svensson was sent off for two minutes with one second left on the match clock, and Kristianstad "only" one free throw - not a penalty as they wanted.

"A question of interpretation"

That is why they may now lodge a protest.

- We are prevented from a fairly clear goal chance last 30 (seconds) and should it be a penalty, I think, says club manager Jesper Larsson to Kristianstadsbladet.

- It is a question of interpretation.

The referees mean whether it is a goal chance or not.

I mean, it's a pretty good goal chance, if he stops him in an unfair way, then it says it should be a penalty.

I think that is clear.

"Perceives it as a two-minute"

However, referee Mirza Kurtagic is sure they were right.

- We have received information that Kristianstad wants to submit a protest.

For there to be a penalty in that situation, it must be a direct red card and we perceive it as a two-minute.

Nor is it a clear goal chance that can lead to a penalty immediately.

He is not through but jumps from nine meters, he says.
