In the home meeting with Union, Malmö lost 1–0 after having played with one more man for a long time.
Tonight's match was also a snowy story.
Already in the first half, Jo Inge Berget was replaced due to injury.
It was followed up with Oscar Lewicki linking out with his hand to the groin in the 79th minute.
Nightmare jump for Lomotey
Malmö played okay, but never created any real dangerous chances against Bundesliga leaders Union Berlin.
Lewicki's replacement Emmanuel Lomotey also had a nightmare jump.
First, he incurred a penalty in the 87th minute.
A penalty that Robin Knoche safely thundered in behind Ismael Diwara.
Then he received a straight red card in added time after a violent challenge.
In the event of a draw, Malmö would have had a chance to reach third place, and thus the playoffs in the Conference League together with Djurgården.
But now they are completely cut off, and out of all European games.
