Several bad explosions in Djurgården – Bik Karlskoga
It is Djurgården’s advantage after the first quarter-final.
Stockholm won the game, which included a great fight, a questionable goal and two nasty injuries.
– We follow our plan and then speed up, says Linus Klasen to C More.
There were vulgar images posted live in the second period between Djurgården and Karlskoga.
After a collision with an opponent, home team player Daniel Glad fell helplessly into the rim back first – and the ice had to help him.
Leaving the ice stained with blood
The crowd at Hovet had already seen Karlskogabacken Henrik Larsson leave the ice bloody in the first period.
Just before the start of the middle period, word came that the star quarterback would not be able to continue playing.
A heavy break for the visitors, who found themselves at a disadvantage midway through the first half after Emil Berglund scored for Djurgården.
Long video review
Just four minutes into the first half, they equalized with the team’s top scorer, David Lilja.
But Djurgården and Marcus Krüger responded immediately. However, a lengthy video review was required before holding on to make it 2-1, as it was not clear whether Kruger had moved into the goal area when he controlled Niklas Danielsson’s shot. But the judges chose to acquit.
Then misfortune continued for the visitors, who suffered many costly expulsions.
When William Pythros had to sit in the penalty area seven minutes into the second half, he kicked the ball in again. This time the scorer’s name was Victor Nilsson.
With a minute and a half left in the third period, Fredrik Forsberg put the final score 4-1 in an open cage.
Djurgården thus leads the quarter-final series 1-0.
Quarter-final 2 will take place on Monday.
