Umeå has impressed greatly during the autumn season, and is second in the SBL.

But their impressive winning streak of seven straight wins came to an abrupt end tonight in Östersund, where Jämtland won 99–83.

- We didn't get into the match at all.

Or yes, we got going a bit in the second half but by then we had already made so many mistakes.

It meant that they had players who were so hot that they put in shots that you don't put in if you weren't allowed to come in and score easy points at the beginning.

And then it became tough for us, he tells Östersundsposten.

Hampton top scorer

Hansson, who previously played in Jämtland in particular, was together with Bryan Jefferson the top scorer in Umeå with 20 points and received the most cheers of all the players on the field when he was introduced before the match.

- It's special, it's not usually like that on away games, he says.

Jämtland's Pierre Hampton scored the most points in tonight's match.
