AIK defeated Brynäs in front of a packed stadium • Hockeyallsvenskan

Crowded in Hovet.

Then there was a huge drama between AIK and Brynäs.

Drama that AIK won 5-4 after extra time.

There was a note on the door of Hovet Stadium when AIK faced league runners-up Breynas on Friday evening. The last time Hovet’s AIK products were on sale was in January 2020, but now the time has come again.

AIK then seemed to be going for three points and with less than a minute left they took a two-goal lead.

But with 39 seconds left in the game, Mix Endrassis cut the lead and with just nine seconds left in the game, he went ahead again, scoring his third goal of the night and taking the game to overtime.

However, AIK was the stronger and won 5-4 after a decision by Gerry Fitzgerald.

Direct target

Friday night at Glory, both teams showed early evidence that this was going to be a goal-rich game, and less than three minutes later both teams found the right thing.

A minute and a half into the game, Oscar Nord gave AIK the lead and took the opportunity to celebrate in front of the home fans in Hovet.

But 33 seconds later, Brinas equalized through Jacques Kubaka. The common denominator of goals? This was the first shot of the team in question.

But only the home team AIK were able to build on their goal in the first half. The home team was outnumbered and scored two power play goals and went into halftime trailing 3-1.

However, towards the end of the middle half, there would be some tension in the match as Mix Indrasis fell behind in the closing stages. But when the disc was released for the third time, AIK wasted no time. Daniel Muzito Baginda gained space in the castle and scored 4-2 after just 16 seconds.

AIK also looked to be heading towards three points but two goals in half a minute, the last with nine seconds left in the third, set up Mix Endrassis for extra time.

Get back on the winning track

But it was AIK who finally got the bonus point and won 5-4. Thus, the team returns to winning ways after two consecutive losses.

For Brinas, it was the fourth loss in the last five matches, but the Gavle team still has the best average points in the series.
