Chriustroffer Edlund made his elite league debut with Vetlanda in 2007. That season there were 35 goals, and thereafter, apart from two guest appearances in Russia, it has been more the rule than the exception that he scored goals in the elite league.
For example, in 2009 he broke a 69-year-old record for the most number of goals in one and the same match - with twelve goals against Katrineholm.
Set a penalty
And tonight, when his Villa Lidköping crushed Vänersborg 10-2, he accounted for four goals.
Thus, he has now scored 1,000 goals in total in the elite series.
The thousandth was a penalty, which he had to step in from the bench to take.
- Because I was sitting on the bench, I had time to think for quite a while.
At the same time, it was nice, because I was rested when I had to take the penalty.
I mostly thought about scoring, but of course I was aware of the situation.
It was a great feeling, the shooting king tells Nya Lidköpings newspaper.
"Cool"
After the goal, there was a real celebration in front of the Villa supporters who had traveled there.
- Cool to be able to do it in front of a short side full of Villa supporters, he says.
