It rained in Gothenburg for hours this evening.

ear stew is against AFC Eskilstuna It was supposed to kick off at 19.00 at Gamla Ullevi, but the waterlogged pitch delayed the match. It was hoped that it would start at 19.30 and 20.00, but the weather did not allow it.

Around 20.10, the audience saw an attempt to start the meeting in Superettan. Two minutes of parody lasted, then referee Per Mellin stopped the match.

“Fun to watch”

Then Victor Gutisson’s kick-off, a simple pass on the ground, was stopped by spray-soaked grass after a few metres.

The playing field was filled with water that greeted the players at Gamla Ullevi.

– Oh oh oh. It’s an exciting start, says Discovery Plus commentator Marcus Poland.

During the short and wet match, it was difficult for the players to survive. They fell and slipped. Anyone caught or thrown can expect to slip a few metres.

It simply was not possible to play football.

– It was fun to watch. AFC goalkeeper Nick Walters says every situation in front of goal freaked me out about the two minutes the match went on.

Tomorrow at 11.00 am a new attempt to play the game.
