Anders Lindback was run over by Richard Genge.
Afterwards, Brynäsmålvakten was furious with the AIK captain:
– I think it’s very ridiculous and unnecessary of him.
Not even a minute had been played in the first meeting between Brynäs and AIK when emotions ran high. Richard Genge drove in Anders Lindbäck and several players ended up on the ice and ended up in a heated discussion in one of the corners of the ice.
Helmetless and upset, Lindbäck was one of those who was there to confront Gynge.
The referees chose to send off the AIK striker for two minutes for a challenge on the goalkeeper.
– Almost to the point that the judges apologized for taking just one second. They thought it was early in the game, but I don’t think it matters. “That’s not how you do it,” Lindback says.
Brynäs eventually won the match 5-2 after which Anders Lindbäck was still very disappointed with Gynge.
– He is in the middle of the movement and then comes from the blind side and elbows into the head. No matter how hard it is, it doesn’t matter. I don’t think it’s hockey. A bit boring from a guy who I think should understand a little better.
what did you tell him?
– Maybe we shouldn’t take that here.

The home audience praised
Richard Genge faced the situation quite differently.
– It was not my intention to run over the goalkeeper and that was never the case.
How did Richard Genge react to Anders Lindback’s move?
With silence.
– I don’t understand, is this a question? He answers when he hears what Lindbäck said.
Yes, how do you see him thinking and saying that?
– He can say whatever he wants. That’s up to him. “Now I have to relax,” Genji says and leaves the interview.
Brynäs made a good start to the Allsvenskan season with a win in front of a packed home arena.
– Good first match and good to build on. It’s so much fun to play and great to see all our fans there for the warm-ups, and they even called us on afterwards. “It’s nice that it seems like the whole Gävle region is with us on this journey,” says Anders Lindback.
