• Växjö DFF vs Umeå IK 2-2


Växjö at the bottom of the table, before this round's battle with Umeå was pressured to gain points. Ahead of the second half, the situation was looking tough, when they were down 0-2 against the newcomer from the northern parts of Sweden who came to Växjö with confidence after last round's victory vs Linköpings FC. Kayla Braffet and Lova Lundin scored Umeå's goals. 

Although Växjö refused to give up. Signe Holt Andersen's penalty in the 67th minute gave them hope and the strength they needed to push for an equaliser.  With just ten minutes left, it became a reality when Holt Andersen scored again. 

  • Kristianstad DFF vs Piteå IF 3-1

Piteå travelled down to the Swedish south to face Kristianstad in Skåne. Piteå was eager to bounce back from their surprising loss vs Växjö in the last round. 

They got the start they wanted when Brazilian player Fernanda da Silva put Piteå in the lead with a spectacular goal when she scored directly from a corner-kick.

But that was it for Piteå. Just two minutes later Kristianstad scored the equaliser through a header from Alice Nilsson. Ten minutes into the second half it was time again and just like that Piteå lost their lead when Kristianstad's Amanda Edgren hit the beck of the net behind the Norweigan goalkeeper Guro Pettersen. 


Jutta Rantala then scored a delicious goal, when she with a spectacular solo number fooled every single one of Piteå's defenders before she put the ball behind Pettersen into the goal, making it 3-1.

After that, Piteå didn't recover. Piteå's Nina Jakobsson then was shown off the pitch in the 60th minute with a red card, and the win was a done deal for the hosts. 

  • Djurgårdens IF vs Eskilstuna United 2-1

Frida Boriero found midfielder Sheila Van den Bulk with a corner kick making it 1-0 for Djurgården.

With 20 minutes left to play, Van den Bulk was taken down roughly by the defence in Eskilstuna which resulted in a penalty for Djurgården. She stepped up to the spot herself and scored her second goal for the evening. 

Eskilstuna managed to make it 2-1 in the 78th minute through Finnish international Kajsa Collin, who was assisted by another international, Swedish striker Loreta Kullashi - but it was not enough.
