It was supposed to be a midnight sun match, but according to SMHI it was partly cloudy and local rain showers in the area around Lombia IP and ten degrees when the match started at 23 o'clock.
According to Piteå-Tidningen (PT), the 932 spectators who braved the weather and the late hour still got to see a show, when Piteå's Hlin Eiriksdóttir shone in the absence of the night sun.
She accounted for all three goals of the match, all of which came in the second half.
Despite the hat trick, the 22-year-old pointed to the efforts of her teammates who arranged her situations.
- Fantastic fun.
It was cool to play here and extra fun when we win and play so well, she tells PT.
Despite the fact that she, as an Icelander, has some habit of the sun hanging on the sky in summer, the late meeting was a new experience.
- It's probably easy to believe that we do this in Iceland that has the same conditions with the light, but I have never played at this time actually, but maybe it's something they will start with there now, says Hlin Eiriksdóttir to the newspaper.
