Frölunda plunged into a sudden drama away from Luleå.
After the match, coach Roger Ronberg gave a different interview.
– It’s not a free society, he told C More.
Frölunda lost 1-0 leading to a 1-2 loss in the mud after Pontus Själin decided to lolio.
After the match, Frolunda coach Roger Ronberg became noticeably upset and gave a different interview.
‘Not a free society’
– I coach my players, not the referees. So I’ll talk about my players, he told C More.
– You can talk about the referees too, says Johan Edlund, Cmore commentator.
– No, I can’t have that. It’s 2023, and we’re having Pride Week and we’re taking many steps in the community in a good way, I think. But not on others, as there is no free society.
When asked if he could clarify his answer, the answer was no.
– I will not do that. He says I am very upset now.
The above scorer decided
Frölunda took the lead after just over eight minutes through Joel Lundqvist’s counter-attack.
Playoff-playing Lulea looked tense and was ineffective in the closing stages – while Danish keeper Frederic Deschus played Frou Londa brilliantly.
Midway through the last period, the 21-year-old’s clean sheet remained intact.
But then Jonas Berglund got involved in the proceedings.
The Luleå defender showed brilliance when he brought Dichow down onto the ice with a delicious move and pulled a backhand into the roof of the net from a tight angle.
The match went to overtime and there the home team was the strongest.
The hero of the match was Pontus Celine, who scored his first goal after a 30-match drought.
– It’s not too late, he says to C More and laughs.
– We feed on the match all the time and in the end we get profits. Every goal and every point counts at the end of the season. It was really cool.
Double the penalty kick in the first half
The game was furious from the start and with two minutes left in the first half it got really hot in the Frolunda goal, after Philipp Hasa delivered several cross checks against Ole Nicopetere of the home team.
It was not appreciated by Finn and after a moment the fight was real. Both players were sent off until the end of the match.
C Moore expert Niklas Wieggaard questioned the ruling.
– To get a penalty for that… Yeah, that’s how things look, says Wikegård.
With a 2-1 victory, Luleå is now just one point behind Rögle, who sits in last place in the play-off.
