Before the match, Djurgården had taken the lead in eight matches this season.
All times they have since won.
Now that number is up to nine.
After a quarter of a game, Elias Andersson hit the ball to the faithful servant Haris Radetinac, he came to Djurgården in 2013, who scored 1-0.
Eriksson's first of the season
Värnamo was far from harmless during the first half and created several situations.
Marcus Antonsson had the most danger, but Piotr Johansson threw himself and steered the ball away.
With a clever finish at the first post, the home team's Magnus Eriksson could instead make 2-0, his first goal of the season.
- It was hell to take me on time, says Magnus Eriksson to Discovery Plus at half time.
Series management
Djurgården then made sure to kill Värnamo's hope.
At the beginning of the second half, Victor Edvardsen released the ball to Emanuel Banda who braced the ball from just outside the penalty area.
Guess what, Värnamo's goalkeeper Pilip Vaitsiakhovich is not entirely happy with the intervention at the goal.
The goal party, however, did not end there.
Assisted by Joel Asoro, "Mange" Eriksson placed his second goal of the day, this time with the wrong foot.
Viktor Edvardsen also managed to become a goal scorer when he rolled the ball in extra time.
Djurgården thus goes up in the league lead, however with two games more played than Häcken.
