It’s been a long wait.
Jönköping Södra has been clear to the league a long time.
Almost all season.
Now the wait is over.
And for a short time, Jönköping Södra get to enjoy the newcomer untroubled existence.
Soon, reality can be different.
The Olympics is a different reality than the Superettan.
Larger, more beautiful, more fun, more attractive, but also tougher and tougher.
And everything is about how Jönköping Södra taking on the challenge.
Because it is a transition to go from victory and success and matches where it always weighs over one’s own advantage and where pending events ends with the odd goal wins to losses, setbacks and games where you think you are playing evenly with the opponents, which one thinks one is just as good, maybe even better, but like damn lose on an individual mistake or because of the bluntness of the two penalty areas.
How does one deal with that one no longer is the stylish, hot guy that everything is so easy? And how do you not to destroy itself in all that? For while you have to prepare for a more scruffy football existence must not fold down or feeling sorry for yourself or have better-known teams and players press one.
Not for the skeptics
Being a newcomer in the league is not for the skeptics.
Sirius, the only team that could threaten Jönköping Södra Allsvenskan status, played draw against Varberg hours before Jönköping Södra’s series finale against Östersund FK, a result that meant Jönköping Södra was ready for the league.
So when the Southern players jogged out to warm up before the game became a kind of lap of honor before the home supporters. A celebration even before kick-off.
And it certainly did something with Southern players. Epinephrine level fell a few notches, the focus was moved, consciously or unconsciously, away from his strategy and thoughts flickered and sought out the fact that Jönköping Södra managed to qualify for the Olympics for the first time since 1969th
To get up in the headlines after having been close, close in months is an exhalation.
The tension release.
A tension that gradually built up in Jönköping during the season. Suspended central defender Joakim Karlsson said the day before the game against ÖFK that the Board removed the Allsvenskan advancement since the first rounds of Superettan.
From it also looked like. That nothing could prevent Jönköping
A strong Jönköping Södra. Who directly took command in the table top and in the absence of really strong contenders became Superettan 2015 a settlement between Jönköping Södra and Östersund FK.
It is undeniably
But when you’re in it, when you know the work that must be done every day and how easy it built up can be destroyed when you start thinking about how small the margins is, when the mind starts to wander, spin can also looking clear and safe safely out to be fragile and precarious.
Jönköping Södra has however been chewing on.
It is impressive.
Even if the effort against ÖFK not exactly scared the life out of the upcoming opponents possibly watched the game. Both teams appeared sloppy, sloppy, with many technical mistakes.
On the other hand; Jönköping Södra might find strength in looking at how other newcomers in recent years succeeded in any case remain hanging in the headlines.
It is undeniable.
As long as you accept that no longer the school’s best looking guy.
