With two matches left to play, Varberg no longer has an Allsvenskan contract in his hands.
After losing 4-1 away to Mjällby, Varberg slips into the qualifying zone.
It is unacceptable, says John Berkfeldt to Discovery.
Fixed positions set the tone in Strandvallen. Mjällby finally defeated Varberg 4-1.
And in the 28th minute, Carlos Gracia headed in a corner kick. Mjällby led 1-0 at the first half break, and added the home team early in the second half.
Adam Stoll headed in 2-0, also via a fixed stand. Silas Nwankwo then responded to make the score 3-0, after neglecting the away team.
Varberg cut back in the last minutes through Alexander Johansson, but the last goal of the match was scored by Gideon Mensah – his own. The 4-1 goal was also the last in the match.
Team captain’s anger: “Fuck!”
Varberg captain Jon Birkfeldt is brief when he sums up the evening’s performance.
– Chet, Birkfeldt says to Discovery and continues:
– It’s really unfortunate and bad. It is not acceptable. I can only speak for myself, but I am really disappointed.
The result makes Diggerforce particularly happy. After Mjällby’s win, Degerfors steps up to safe ground, while Varberg slips into the qualifying zone.
We can’t influence whether Degerforce wins or not. It’s up to us, and we didn’t do that today.
Meanwhile, Norrköping played 1-1 away to Varnamo. Laurent Chabani scored the first goal of the match in the 14th minute. Beijing appeared to be heading for three points – but in the 89th minute star striker Marcus Antonson appeared. Antonson scored his 20th goal of the season when he challenged a draw on the goal line after the ball hit the post.
The cross means that Norrköping is in eleventh place, and Varnamo is in tenth place in the table. Newcomer Värnamo has now secured the Allsvenskan contract for 2023.
