You can't directly claim that Elfsborg praised the market in the end.

The last time they picked up a three-pointer was on June 27, when Varberg were defeated 4–1 at home.

Since then, the team has played eleven consecutive competitive matches without a win, and on Thursday evening it was time for yet another bottom when they were beaten by the Division 1 team Oskarshamn with 1-0 in the last qualifying round of the Swedish Cup.

The only goal of the match was sent in by South African Kgotso Masangane in the 27th minute.

In the second half, Elfsborg pressed for an equaliser, but even though Oskarshamn barely had to borrow the ball, the yellow and blacks did not manage to break the deadlock.
