Häcken really did not lack opportunities to score in the first half, but Kalle Joelsson in Helsingborg's goal impressed and made sure that it was goalless at half time.
- I think we create enough chances, we have done that in the previous matches as well so that ... we will only score goals, that is what is missing.
It's skills, we'll get to practice finishing or something.
We create chances and play quite well, I think so it is disturbing that there will be no goal, says Häcken's Samuel Gustafsson to Discovery + after 45 minutes played.
10 minutes into the second half, it finally came loose - and the 1-0 goal was really nice.
First Kristoffer Lund had to throw himself and pick down a long pass on the left side, then he got up immediately and sent in a perfect post that Alexander Jeremejeff could nod in behind Joelsson.
Weberg saved HIF
However, Helsingborg worked their way into the match the longer it led and in the seventh extra minute they got a free kick a few meters outside the penalty area.
Opportunity for a hero to step forward - and as midfielder Charlie Weberg did.
With hardness and precision, he screwed the ball next to the far post behind Peter Abrahamsson in the Häcken goal.
- I can barely remember how it went, I did not see the ball all the way and I did not even intend to shoot from the beginning but I thought it was such a good situation so I tested and it went in.
I thought they were so high and if I were to chip in, I would have had to hit a loose chip that was just right, so I thought it was better to bet on a shot and I thought it was free in the distance, says Weberg
The free kick goal was his first in the Allsvenskan.
- I have scored a free kick goal in a U21 match before, that is what I have succeeded with.
I do not really think we get up to level today, but you can sometimes take a cross as well, says Weberg.
