Watching Norrkoping v Djurgarden just now and the home side are looking very good. Just went 1-0 up with a lovely dink over the top of the defence which the boy running from midfield took first time on the volley and slotted it in the corner. Great goal.

Kujovic just missed a sitter to make it 2-0. They're heading top of the table as it stands, though.

Just went close again, hitting the bar this time. Djurgarden are hopeless.

The first goal:

The third was on par with it too:

So I stopped watching at HT as the Mrs came home and was blethering away about some work shite. Missed 5 goals! Norrkoping winning 4-2 in the end. Went 2-0 up early in the second half but were pulled back to 2-2, the first of which I'm sure was the away sides first shot on target, the second goal (a penalty) was their second OT. Norrkoping went back in front a minute later though then big Kujovic sealed it late on. They're now top on GD, but a point tomorrow for Goteborg is enough to send them top on GD. 5 games to go, hoping for Norrkoping to win it. Just shy of 12,500 at the game, too, who created a cracking atmosphere in what is a lovely wee ground.

Elfsborg go 1-0 up with 3 minutes left. Free kick in to the box which the keeper should probably come and punch away (he does, but far too late), and he's beaten to the ball by the Elfsborg player to head in.

This is how the top 3 looks with 5 games to go:

:lol:

All 3 level on points, 2nd and 3rd separated by a single goal and each side has picked up 16 or 18 points from the last 18 available. The run-in is going to be superb.

IFK Goteborg:

v GIF Sundsvall (H)

v Halmstad (H)

v Djurgarden (A)

v AIK (A)

v Kalmar (H)

IFK Norrkoping:

v Gefle (A)

v Hacken (H)

v Elfsborg (A)

v Halmstad (H)

v Malmo (A)

AIK:

v Hammarby (A)

v Malmo (H)

v Halmstad (A)

v Goteborg (H)

v Orebro (A)

Each side has 3 'easy' games and two difficult ones. I'd say Norrkoping have the tougher run-in as both of their hard games are away from home (Elfsborg & Malmo). AIK have it slightly easier as they have Goteborg & Malmo both at home, but do have to face Hammarby away from home in the Stockholm derby. Goteborg have the easiest run in, AIK aside. Djurgarden are in the top 6 but have been pish for weeks, but it'll be a tougher test than the other 3. Got to feel for Halmstad though, 5 games left, 3 wins all season, none since early July and they've got to play the top 4 (these 3 + Malmo), whilst being 6 adrift of the relegation play-offs. On their way down.

Just four games to go now and one of the top three slipped up at the weekend:

AIK lost the derby at Hammarby & their 9 game winning run came to an end. Göteborg beat Sundsvall 3-2 after twice being ahead and being pegged back. Norrköping won 2-1 at Gefle which had them top for about 24 hours prior to Göteborg winning earlier.

Swiss League is as expected right now. Basel running away with it, 9 wins out of 10 and 6 clear of Grasshoppers who are second. Bern and Luzern and joint 3rd, 3 points further back.

Icelandic league highlights on by sport 2 with a very 'raw' sounding Scottish commentator, wonder if it's anyone off here?

Aye, you get that guy a lot on World of Football...not the greatest play by play commentator, but to be fair he's all over the various scandinavian, japanese etc pronunciations.

Two games to go in this seasons Allsvenskan now. Halmstad and Åtvidaberg were both relegated at the weekend, with the relegation play-off spot still to be sorted - Falkenberg, Kalmar & Sundsvall can all finish there. All the action is still at the top though, with the top three looking like this:

post-15093-0-53450900-1445346445_thumb.p

Norrköping lost at Elfsborg yesterday, 3-2. They lead 1-0 and missed a penalty when 2-1 down, deserved at least a draw but missed Kujovic up front to stick away the chances they created. Luckily for them, Göteborg made an arse of things at Djurgården. Trailed 1-0, got in front with two quick goals and then conceded a late equaliser. AIK struggled to a 1-0 win at Halmstad, needing a 94th minute own goal to get the three points.

Next weekend? AIK v Göteborg. Given AIK have won 13 and drawn one from their 14 home games and Göteborg have only one win from their last 4, I'd expect AIK to win that and knock the away side out of the title race. Norrköping are at home to relegated Halmstad, so you'd expect them to win that. AIK and Norrköping are in similar form with 15 points from the last 18. Had Göteborg matched that (they have 12) they'd be a couple points clear. Anyway, should the two games go as predicted above, the table would look like this:

1. Norrköping - 63pts

2. AIK - 63pts

3. Göteborg - 59pts

With Norrköping travelling to Malmö on the final day and AIK going to Örebro, it would be a tough call as to who will win the league. I'm still hoping it'll be Norrkoping. Regardless though, whoever wins the league from these three will be the fourth different winner in five seasons.

T'rific 0-3 away win for Sporting at Benfica this evening. Porto-Braga just kicking off, Porto need to win to keep pace with Sporting. Wouldn't mind seeing Braga get a share of points here though, which would keep it all fairly tight at the top. Great Primera Liga race shaping up this year.

Final day of the Allsvenskan 2015 season today. All games kicked off at 12 with 3 teams going for the title. Norrköping top by a point ahead of Göteborg, then AIK a couple of points further back.

As it stands just coming up for half time:

Göteborg 0-2 Kalmar

Malmö 0-1 Norrköping

Örebro 1-0 AIK

Norrköping the champions as it stands. :D Göteborg are hilarious. Became the only team to beat AIK at their home ground this season last week, now it looks like they're bottling it at home to Kalmar who were 4th bottom at the start of the day. They only needed to win today and have Norrköping drop points to win the league. AIK needed to win and both sides above them to lose.
