Varberg / Stockholm. Free ticket to the golden battle.
Then Ike responded by failing miserably against Varberg with a score of 0-2.
– We’re having a pee match, says Mikael Lustig to Sportbladet.
The passive derby between Hammarby and Djurgården gave the ticket back to the Battle of Gold and a chance to overtake Hammarby at the table.
This was not the case.
Instead, they went on a failure-like loss to Varberg.
nightmare minutes
The match was goalless until the 78th minute. Then it was narrowed twice in favor of Varberg. First when Ruben Tranberg scored 1-0 with his first goal of the season, then when Felipe Cisse made it 2-0 just two minutes later.
– We knew they were strong in standing positions and we still allowed two goals there. It’s too bad. And we’re bad at moving forward, too. We’re playing an exciting game and we deserve to lose,” Mikael Lustig tells Sportbladet.
– It’s too bad right through. “We have to look at ourselves in the mirror and realize that such performances are not good enough,” says goalkeeper Christopher Nordfeldt.
left as four
The loss means AIK is still fourth in the table.
Two points still separate Hammarby in third and if Haken beats Kalmar tomorrow, nine points separate them from first place.
– We knew it would be difficult even before and of course it will be very difficult now. At the same time, we must not lie down and die. At the moment, he is very bitter and feels very good. Mikael Lustig says if we go somewhere clean, we can see where we end up, but it will take a lot until we get where we want.
