The 1-2 defeat and a weak effort against newcomer Ostersund. For the first time since 2013, Hacken lost three straight games in the league. It’s heavy, but we have to fight on and learn from mistakes, says Simon Sandberg.

It was an injury suffered by Hacken who came to play on Jämtkraft Arena in Östersund. No fewer than nine players, many of them influential in Hisings team, was forced to sit out the game. And those who were on the plane got a struggle evening in the pouring rain. The newcomer Ostersund, who last defeated Falkenberg away from home with 2-1 and thus took his first victory ever in the league, got right with its patented ball football and forced Hacken to turn down.

After five minutes, came also 1-0 in Ostersund. In the epilogue to a far corner struck the ball ended up in the end of Ronald Mukiibi just outside the penalty area. Full-back, with a background in Hacken, took the ball and went to a well-placed shot.

The early lead gave Ostersund increased self-confidence and the home team continued to dominate the game during the first half. Guests had problems to create some really clear scoring opportunities – but a few times they stack up. And at one point gave dividends. In the 13th minute beat Samuel Gustafson corner kick that went over all the onrushing players. But in the back of the penalty area cheated Simon Sandberg. The defenses came up with a wrist shot that passed the cluster of players and into the goal. Smoothed.

– We had trained in the version before the game. All of our players would rush towards the front and I would drag on the rear. Since it was perhaps not Intranets that the ball would tunnel four defenders on the way into the goal, said the goalscorer.

In the second half continued Ostersund to push for a goal but Häcken defense, with Peter Abrahamsson in the lead, held received long and well. In the 75 minute burst, however in the end. Saman Ghoddos broke into Häcken

penalty, and after some quick dribbling striker went down in a challenge from Mohammed Abubakari. Referee Jonas Eriksson pointed to the penalty spot – to wild protests from Hisings team. Brwa Nouri stepped forward and knocked the ball into the goal from eleven meters.

Hacken tried to find the equalizer but lacked power in the offensive.

– The first halvek I think we are standing up good, but in the second we fell back and did not come at all level up, says Simon Sandberg.

the defeat means Hacken for the first time since 2013 has lost three straight premier division games.

– in both Norrköping and Blåvitt we had margins against us, it’s heavy, but we have to fight on and learn from mistakes.
