Midfielder
Tina Nordlund elected Player of The Year in Sweden at the annual nationwide
televised gala in Stockholm
By Thorsten Frennstedt
Midfielder Tina
Nordlund was elected Player of The Year in Sweden at the annual big nationwide
televised gala in Stockholm Monday night.. The gala was hosted by the
Swedish FA. A Tina was awarded the Diamond Ball. The jury motivation for
choosing Tina: "She has kept a high constant standard during the season
and she has been the best player in Allsvenskan. Tina has a good technical
skill, she is a good challenger one-to-one and she has the hability to
surprise. Tina´s contribution is a major reason why her club team
Umeå IK won the premier league for the first time." Tina Nordlund
is 23 years. She has 29 caps and played for Sweden in the recent WC'99
and Olympic Games.
UMEÅ
is Sweden´s new League Champion as Sweden's Elite league finishes
its season
By Thorsten Frennstedt
Astrio 1 Kristianstad/Wä 2 (0-0)
A: Tina Edgren (28) PK
K/W: Maria Wanstadius (46), Elin Nilsson /72)
It was the last game in the Allsvenskan for Astrio, and it was an honourable
farewell. K/W was not sure of the importance of the win. A defeat would
have meant relegation if Kenty had beaten Malmö FF.
Hammarby 1 Bälinge
0 (1-0)
Linda Fagerström (57)
This was the first win in 9 games for Hammarby. They will try to forget
this season full of injuries. Hopefully there will be a healthy come-back
in April. Linda the scorer played for Bälinge until 3 years ago.
Thanks to the win Hammarby passed Balinge in the final table.
Kenty 0 Malmö
2 (0-1)
Luiza Pendyk (36,61)
Malmö had to win to be sure of at least the second place in the league.
Kenty had to win to keep its place in the league. It went to a tough fight.
Kenty´s Charlotte Rohlin was sent off after stopping Malmö top
scorer Luiza Pendyk.
Kopparbergs/Landvetter 2 Umeå 2 (1-2)
K/L: Kristin Bengtsson (33), straff, Anna Maria Eriksson (60)
U: Anna Sjöström (4), Therese Kapstad (34)
Umeå knew that this decisive game would be a difficult one. Though
they seemed to control the match, the K/L .players were very efficient.
Marit Björstedt created the PK. Kristin Bengtsson scored. "Kicki"
also picked the CK before Anna Maria Eriksson made it 2-2 by a nice header.
In the very end of the match Umeå-keeper Sofia Lundgren saved the
shot from Marit Björstedt from close range.
The Umeå-players
were handed the gold medals by Sweden´s FA president Lars-Åke
Lagrell. This was the first time Umeå had won the Allsvenskan and
after only four seasons.
Älvsjö
5 Sundbyberg 0 (2_0)
Jenny Syrén (16, 78), Anna Hall (28, 64), Jane Törnqvist (89)
An easy win for dethroned champion Alvsjö. Sundbyberg did not line
up their key players who won the league last year. Älvsjö´s
top striker Victoria Svensson was banned from this match because of 3
YK:s.
Öster 1
Djurgården 9 ((0-4)
Ö Lisa Johansson (77)
D: Jill Brommé (3), Elin Flyborg ( 4, 27, 29, 56, 64, 73), Jessika
Sundh ( 55, 75)
Elin Flyborg became the only player in the Allsvenskan scoring six goals
in a single match this year. Even with this big defeat Österfinished
in its best its best position ever in the Allsvenskan. Before the Allsvenskan
of 2000 experts? predicted that Öster would not make another year.
Attendance 59.
Summary
The three new teams to join the Allsvenskan next year, starting in April
2001 are Sunnanå SK, Mallbackens IF and Holmalunds IF Alingsås.
Only the latter one has never played in the Allsvenskan. The other two
are previous members.

Results
of games played in Elite Sweden League Allsvenskan on October 21/22
Thosten Frennstedt
Bälinge2 Älvsjö 2 (1-1)
B: Therese Karling (43), Carolin Hagberg (72)
Ä: Katarina Karlsson (14), Malin Andersson (85) PK
Älvsjö failed to capitalize on their chance of winning the league.
It seems that Älvsjö lost its spirit in the previous round with
the draw on home soil against Kopparbergs/Landvetter. Bälinge secured
their contract for the next season. Åsa Wallgårda replaced
injuried Ulrika Karlsson in the goal. Veronica Johansson got a RC and
Älvsjö a PK upon which Malin Andersson saved the one point.
Malmö 5 Öster 0 (2-0)
Christina Papp (7), Therese Lundin (30), Eva Zeikfalvy 56 (PK), Linda
Green (57), Therese Norberg (83).
Malmö still is the threat to Umeå´s expected championship
win. Top scorer Luiza Pendyk was without a goal but caused the PK. According
to Malmö head coach Lena Videkull the winning margin deserved to
be doubled.
Djurgården_
4 Astrio 0 (3_0)
JessikaSundh (8, 80), Anna Andersson (13), Elin Flyborg (42).
Elin Flyborg was nominated for Sweden´s national team against Finland
but was injured. During the week she recovered.
Umeå 5 Kenty 0 (4_0)
Tina Nordlund (23), Emma Lindqvist (37), Linda Dahlqvist (40), Anna Sjöström
(43), Therese Kapstad (89).
Tina Nordlund had not scored since the 8th round. She was the only of
Umeå´s internationals who scored, however Hanna Ljungberg created
some of the goals. Therese Kapstad scored the 4th time in a row - still
as a substitute. Umeå is just one win away in their away match against
Kopparbergs/Landvetter to be Swedish Champions for the first time.
Kristianstad/Wä 3 Hammarby 3 ( 0_1)
K/W: Therese Sjögran (46, 52), Sara Johansson (64).
H: Salina Olsson (45, 71), Ann-Sofie Södergren (72).
Both team would have saved there contracts with a win. K/W looked like
the winners after Therese Sjögran hade equalized the Hammarby 0_1,
scored 2 1 and given the ball for Sara Johansson to make it 3_1. Within
two minutes Hammarby scored twice, and in the last minute Salina Olsson
was close to make her hat-trick.
Sundbyberg 2 Kopparbergs/Landvetter 5 (1-2)
S: Tina Karlsson (16), Annette Köver (75).
K/L: Amelie Rybeck (35), Kristin Bengtsson (40, 69,straff), Camilla Ackerfors
(62), Marit Björstedt (80).
This was the goodbye performance for Sundbyberg. The team will be relegated
to the first division next season. The 1-0 score by Tina Karlsson Sundbyberg
could not resist the west coasters who got some easy scores. K/L plays
Umeå in the final round of this year´s Allsvenskan. If beating
Umeå Malmö will win the gold medals if defeating Kenty in their
away match. Kopparbergs/Landvetter however does not look strong enough
to be a big threat for Umeå.

Game results and standings of week 20 of Sweden
Elite LeagueAllsvenskan October 14, 2000
By Thorsten Frennstedt
Astrio 1 Malmö 3 (0-2)
Astrio Amelie Fogelberg(75)
Malmö Therese Lundin (28, 49), Luiza Pendyk (38),
Malmö failed
to big win over Astrio the last team in the league. Too many chances to
score were misshandled. Therese Lundin was selected for Sweden´s
National Team roster that plays Finland on Wednesday. Therese looked the
way she was before she was badly wounded in her knee.
Bälinge
2 Kristianstad/Wä 2 (0-1)
Bälinge Linda Blom (85), Carolin Hagberg (90).
Kristianstad/Wä Sara Johansson (37), Therese Sjögran
(90) straff.
Bälinge could have possibly saved their league contract by defeating
Kristianstad/Wä. The southerners however kept leading until 5 minutes
from time. After the equalizer Carolin Hagberg scored what seemed to be
the victory goal for Bälinge. In injury time however K/L got a PK
and Therese Sjögran saved one extremly important point for her team.
Älvsjö
2 Kopparbergs/Landvetter 2 (1-0)
Älvsjö Victoria Svensson (45), own gaoal (77)
Kopparbergs/Landvetter Marit Björstedt ( 54, 61)
Maybe Älvsjö lost the chance of chasing Umeå for first
place. Young Marit Björstedt scored twice for the west coasters.
When the two teams met in the Swedish Cup Kopparberg/Landvetter forced
Älvsjö to extra time and the win was by a golden goal. Älvsjö
did not reach the level of the convincing play of last week-end against
Kristianstad/Wä in this match.
Hammarby 1 Djurgården
2 (1-0)
Hammarby Cecilia Rongedahl (37)
Djurgården Elin Flyborg (49), Marie Ewrelius (56)
At last, Hammarby scored after exactly three goal-less hours of play.
The same player who made the last one gave her team the lead this time.
The twoStockholm teams know each other too well to be surprised. Elin
Flyborgis back in the Swedish National roster. She has played two good
matches after the Olympic stop. The victory goal was scored by the experienced
Marie Ewrelius, former national team defender.
Kenty 2 Sundbyberg
2 (1-0)
Kenty Therese Sandström (42), Ann-Sofie Pettersson (89)
Sundbyberg Annette Köver (48, 81)
The only goal of the year by Ann-Sofie Pettersson could be a very important
one to keep her team back in the league. That goes for Sundbyberg´s
Annette Köver too. Thanks to the draw both teams kept their hopes
of saving their Allsvenskan contract in the final round.
Öster 1
Umeå 5 (0-1)
Öster Own goal
Umeå Emma Lindqvist (1), Malin Moström (57), Frida
Östberg (76), Therese
Kapstad (81) Hanna Ljungberg (89)
Umeå got a perfect start. but Öster played so well that the
top team failed to secure the victory until late in the match. Öster
was the team that sent Umeå out of the Swedish Cup, and last year
Öster won the corresponding league match on Öster´s homed
ground.

Kristianstad/Wä
0 Älvsjö 3 ( 0-1)
Älvsjö Jenny Syrén (35), Jane Törnqvist (68),
Lotta Fridh (74)
Kristianstad/Wä
fought well and created its best chances during the first 20 minutes,
especially Sara Johansson who was on Sweden´s Olympic roster but
never played.The many national team players of Älvsjö won the
game with pure experience.
Malmö 2
Hammarby 0 (1-0))
Malmö Luiza Pendyk (36), Christina Albertsen (90).
Malmö should have won by far more number of goals. Hammarby has taken
just one point in six matches. The Stockholmers have put their new contract
for the next season in jeopardy.
Sundbyberg 0
Öster 2 ( 0-2)
Öster Anna Mörstam (13), Anne Gutavsson (61)
Öster saved the contract in this difficult away match. It was as
important to Sundbyberg, who seemed not be able to mobilize the same spirit
as Öster. Sundbyberg was ranked higher than Öster before the
league started.
Kopparbergs/Landvetter
2 Kenty 3 (1-1)
Kopparbergs/Landvetter Amelie Rybeck (1), Susanne Sunesson (70)
Kenty Theree Sandström (43), Elin Hammarman (48), Jnny Curtsdotter
(56). Kenty was out of bounds a month ago. Kopparbergs/Landvetter had
done well before the Olympic break. Although scored against in the first
minute Kenty managed to turn over the match.
Djurgården
3 Bälinge 2 (2-2)
Djurgården Elin Flyborg (17, 69), Jessika Sundh (31)
Bälinge Självmål (13), Linda Grynner (37)
Djurgården coach Thomas Folkesson was head coach of Bälinge
last season. He was also assistant coach of Sweden´s Olympic team.
He was lucky to see his new club win. His defender Karolina Rinman was
less lucky as she send the ball into her own goal for Bälinge to
take the lead. She also caused the free kick that Linda Grynner equalized
to 2-2. It was a tough sometimes unfair game. Bälinge played straight.
Djurgården lost speed in passing the ball round and round.
Umeå 4
Astrio 0 (2-0)
Umeå Emma Lindqvist (20, 69), Hanna Ljungberg (21), Therese
Kapstad (79).
Attendance:1,038
Bottom team Astrio tried to avoid being crushed by Sweden´s number
one team Umeå. On the other hand the relegates had just three shots
on the Umeå goal during the whole match. Hanna Lungberg and also
Tina Nordlund were Umeå´s best players. They kept a good standard
during the Olympics, which was not very succesful for Sweden. Both seemed
to enjoy playing together withtheir club team-mates again.

of week 18 of Sweden's Elite League Damallsvenkan
By Thorsten Frennstedt
August 29- 30
Sundbyberg 1 Hammarby 0 (1-0)
Sundbyberg Malin Swedberg (3)
Head coach Lennart
Ljungqvist was right when he predicted another win for Sundbyberg. On
the contrary Hammarby had a difficult time. Top scorer Minna Heponiemi
has stopped playing after a controversy with her team leaders.
Kenty 0 Öster 2 (0-1)
Öster Jessika Wallström (39), Lotta Runesson (80)
The Öster players
seemed more motivated than the Kentys. This was a key match to secure
a position among the teams in the middle of the table. Öster missed
some of its ill players.
Kopparbergs/Landvetter
5 Astrio 0 (3-0)
Kopparbergs/Landvetter Marit Björstedt ( 15, 24, 57, 74),
Camilla Ackerfors (44)
The young Marit
Björstedt doesn't looks like a rookie after her four goals. Kopparbergs/Landvetter
has earned a safe position in the table
Umeå 3
Bälinge 0 ( 0-0)
Umeå Therese Kapstad (64), Emma Lindqvist (67)
Senior team leader
Ing-Britt Lindberg had to replace the former keeper of the World All Star
team Ulrika Karlsson who got sick. Due to the regulations 2nd keeper Åsa
Wallgårda was not allowed to play from the start of the gamee.Otherwise
she would have been disqualified to play in Bälinge´s 2nd league
team. All the Umeå national team players seemed fit to go to Australia
the next day.
Djurgården
2 Älvsjö 3 (1-2)
Djurgården Elin Flyborg (8, 82).
Älvsjö Jane Törnqvist (11), Malin Andersson (31)
Victoria Svensson (55)
Älvsjö
got its revenge for the final loss in the Swedish Cup. It was a very good
game. All the Älvsjö players seemd fit except for captain Cecilia
Sandell. She did not play the last league match before the take off. Jane
Törnqvist however seems to have hit her top level.
Malmö 2 Kristianstad/Wä 2 ( 0-1)
Malmö Luiza Pendyk (51), Christina Papp (75)
Kristianstad/Wä Maria Wanstadius (12), Sara Johansson (88)
Malmo dropped two
heavy points chasing Umeå for the lead of Allsvenskan. K/W has won
three out of four points this season against top neighbour MFF. K/W played
a very good game and earned the draw. However it seemed that it might
not happen since Luiza and Christina had put Malmö ahead. Therese
Sjögran and Sara Johansson gave the Malmö defence a hard task.
Therese and Sara Maria Wanstadius contributed great support at the back.

by Thorsten Frennstedt
Bälinge
0 Malmö FF 5 (0-3)
Malmö FF Linda Green (6), Luiza Pendyk 15, 76), Karolina Westberg
(45), Therese Lundin (69)
The early goal by Linda Green opened the way for an expected big win for
Malmö. This was the second to last round before the take off for
the players of Sweden´s Olympic team. Therefore those players were
watched closely. Sara Call of Bälinge made her come-back a few months
ago since her surgery for the knee injury. For reasons of caution Sara
was moved out when she had pain after a collision. Malmö´s Karolina
Westberg did a good job in her come-back after her foot injury a month
ago. She even scored for the first time this season.
Älvsjö-
5 Kenty 0 (3-0)
Älvsjö Jane Törnqvist (17, 31), Victoria Svensson
(40, 77), Jenny Syrén (71).
The two teams with equal points (Malmö & Älvsjö) are still
on equal goal difference after their 5-0-wins. Kenty was an easier task,
as their first keeper got a red card in the last game. Poor 2nd goalie
Sandra Fält who had to play the champions on their home ground. Älvsjö´s
Cecilia Sandell, also the captain of team Sweden, had to leave after a
hamstring injury.
Kristianstad/Wä
1 Djurgården 4 (0-0)
Kristianstad/Wä Sara Johansson (90)
Djurgården Carolina Crevatin (51), Elin Flyborg (72), Tina
Kindvall (82), Karolina Rinman (90).
Sara Johansson was unlucky to blow four good chances to score during the
first half. Top team Djurgården was not it self. However the game
changed when the shot from long range by Carolina Crevatin put Djurgården
ahead. Still K/W kept hoping for the equalizer. It never came, just the
single goal by Sara when the guests had scored their fourth.
Öster 0
Kopparbergs/Landvetter 3 (0-3)
Landvetter Camilla Ackerfors (17, 25, 83)
The west coasters got their revange for the loss in their home game. Many
players of the Öster side hade been ill during the week. Everybody
noticed that K/L won their fourth consecutive match.
Astrio 1 Sundbyberg
3 (1-1)
Astrio
Amelie Olausson (22)
Sundbyberg Ulrika Kalte (38, 71), Cailla Hedlund (90).
The three bottom teams of the Allsvenskan are the newcomers of the year.
Remember Ulrika Kalte? She was one of Sweden´s best players 5-6 years
ago. The third win of the year put some optimism in Sundbyberg coach Lennart
Ljungqvist. - Now we even can threat our neighbour Hammarby on Tuesday.
Hammarby 0 Umeå
3 (0-3)
Umeå Malin Moström (pk 23, 25), Anna Sjöström
(27)
Except for five minutes during the whole game Hammarby played a good game
against Sweden´s best team at the time. However Hammarby had few
opportunities to score. Linda Fagerström hit the post in the first
half.
Tina Nordlund was the best player on the field and in the Umeå-team.
Hammarby has no win in its four last matches.

5 Öster 1 (4-0)
Älvsjö Victoria Svensson (6), Cecilia Sandell (12), Lotta
Fridh (33) Jane Törnqvist (35), Johanna Robertsson (83)
Öster Lisa Johansson (89)
An easy win for the champions. Öster paid them too much respect.
Although the second half was a 1-1 game, Älvsjö had scored four
times during the first 45 minutes. The captain of Sweden´s national
team Cecilia Sandell headed in the first goal, her first league-score
this year. Älvsjö let Åsa Lönnqvist and Anna Pohjanen,
two of the most experienced players rest during the first half and Malin
Andersson left the field before the second.
Astrio 0 Kenty
4 (0-3)
Astrio Therese Sandström (8, 38), Helena Krantz (40), Anna
Karlsson (54)
Astrio lost any hope of not being relegated from the Allsvenskan. Though
Kenty-keeper Elinor Wistrand Birath was sent off, Camilla Svensson failed
to score on the penalty kick. Astrio miss keeper Katarina Wicksell who
has become an US- student.
Bälinge
3 Sundbyberg 0 (0-0)
Bälinge Carolin Hagberg (55), Anna Eskhult (60), Therese Karling
(86)
Balinge has recovered and seems to be back in the style of over a year
ago. That especially goes for midfielder Anna Eskhult. Sundbyberg has
won just two games this season, one of them against Bälinge. Then
Sundbyberg was a mid-team of the Allsvenskan and Bälinge at the bottom.
Now it is the reverse, and Sundbyberg will be relegated.

Kopparbergs/Landvetter Kristin Bengtsson (27, straff), Camilla
Ackerfors (61), Marit Björstedt (84)
The first game between east coast Hammarby and the west coasters Kopparbergs/Landvetter
ended 4-3 in favour of Hammarby also. Kristin Bengtsosn, an anchor of
Sweden´s National team, is a former Hammarby player. She knows her
old home pitch and her former team mates so well that she almost decided
the game. However new Marit Björstedt, one of the big talents of
Sweden´s U 18-team dribbled through the entire home defence to score
the winning 3-4-goal.
Kristianstad/Wä
1 Umeå 5 (0-1)
Kristianstad/Wä Sara Johansson (63)
Umeå Hanna Ljungberg (52,65,72), Frida Östberg (25),
Therese Kapstad (87)
Hanna Ljungberg seems to be reaching her peak for the Olympics. However
some of the goals are because of several mistakes by the home side back
line. "Everybody wants to beat the first team of the league. We have to
face
that situation now. The first half was tentative, the second we played
like a team," head coach Richard Holmlund concludes.
Djurgården
0 Malmö 3 (0-2)
Malmö Therese Lundin (8), Luiza Pendyk (22), Therese Norberg
(85)
This match was a curtain raiser for the Djurgården men´s team
and was played in Stockholm´s ancient Olympic stadium of 1912. The
New Cup Champion Djurgården seemed not to have recovered after its
win against Älvsjö.
"Neither team reached its higest level. I´m satisfied that even then
we can beat a top team," Malmö head coach Lenas Videkull declared.
"However Malmö defender Eva Zeikfavly had a top level performance.
We could only regret that she will not be on Sweden´s olympic team
due to studies."

Djurgården
wins the Swedish Cup
By Thorsten Frennstedt
Djurgårdens
IF of Stockholm defeated Älvsjö AIK 3-1 (1-0) to replace the
Cup Champions.
The final was played
in Stockholm. Although five of the Alvsjö players are in Sweden´s
Olympic roster and none of the Djurgården side, it was a fair win
for Djurgården. Two goals were scored by Anna Andersson and one
(the 2-0) by Elin Flyborg. Jane Törnqvist scored the 2-1. Älvsjö
missed the sharpness in their attacs. Anna and Elin are both forwards
in Djurgården.
Results
of week 15 in Sweden Elite League Damallsvenskan of August 12-13
Umeå 2 -
Djurgården 0 (0-0)
Umeå: Linda Dahlqvist (50), Hanna Ljungberg (51)
Both teams
acted uneasy during the first half. A tiny mistake by the Djurgården
defence gave Linda Dahlqvist the first chance and then less than a minute
later Hanna Ljungberg got free to score 2-0. After that the Umeå
side showed great confidence. Tina Nordlund was thebest player on the
field. Umeå is now the number one team of the league too. With seven
more rounds to go the obstacles seem reasonable. Djurgården plays
Malmö in the next round. It could be a race beetween Umeå and
champion Älvsjö.
Malmö 3
- Älvsjö 3 (2-0)
Malmö: Linda Green (9), Eva Zeikfalvy (26, pk), Christina
Papp (81).
Älvsjö: Anna Pohjanen (51), Victoria Svensson (77), Lotta
Fridh (80)
This was one of the
two top matches in the league, No 1 Älvsjö and No 2 Malmö
both have 32 points. Malmö dominated the first half. Top striker
Luiza Pendyk caused the penalty kick and had some very good chances when
she got behind the Älvsjö backs. Älvsjö regained its
composure in the 2nd half. Anna Pohjanen shot 2-1 on a direct corner kick.
Lotta Fridh put Alvsjö ahead but Christina Papp equalized in the
next attack. The home crowd held their breath when the very last shot
of the match from Malin Andersson swept close outside Malmö keeper
Caroline Jönsson´s left post. Five of Älvsjö´s
and three of Malmö´s players are on Sweden´s Olympic roster.
Kopparbergs/Landvetter
1 - Bälinge 0 (1-0)
Kopparbergs/Landvetter:
Camilla Ackerfors (22)
K/L broke the winning streak of former last team Bälinge. Their consecutive
wins ended at five. It became very much a midfield game. Bälinge
attacked during the last 10 minutes and K/L-keeper Ulrika Mellberg made
some great saves.
Öster 3
- Astrio 2 (0-0]
Öster: Jeanette Blomster (55), Lisa Johansson (63), Hanna
Höckert (77)
Astrio: Maria Talmark (47), Susanne Persson (81)
Astrio took
the lead, however that goal worked like a wake upcall for the Öster
side. Jeanette Blomster´s equalizer was a nice header after a corner
kick. After the 2-1- score Öster controlled the rest of the game
though Astrio made it 3 2. Astrio may have have lost the tiny tie to keep
its place in the next Allsvenskan.
Kenty 3 - Hammarby
3 (1-1)
Kenty: Elin Hammarman (44,50), Cecilia Andersson (63).
Hammarby: Minna Heponiemi (42, 90), Linda Lekander (80)
Kenty needed the three points more than Hammarby. Though the Stokholmers
took the lead Elin Hammarman by two goals switched the game in advantage
of Kenty. When Cecilia Andersson made it 3-1 the first win in 7 games
seemed
to occur. The Kenty defence failed to clear at a Hammarby free-kick and
then Minna Heponiemi forceed in the 3-3.
Sundbyberg 0
- Kristianstad/Wä 3 (0-3)
Kristianstad/Wä: Karin Ottosson (6), Sara Svensson (30), Nilla
Fischer (36).
Sundbyberg played like a team that has given up both the hope and its
ambitions to stay in the Allsvenska. The early goal of K/W had a bigger
effect than it deserved. K/W top striker Sara Johansson (who is the surprise
in the nomination of Sweden´s Olympic roster) had to stay aside because
of a hamstring.

5-8th, 2000
Malmö 0
- Umeå 1 (0-0]
Umeå: Emma Lindqvist (65)
The away victory was the key for Umeå´s further fight for the
top position in the league. At Umeå's home game Emma Lindqvist´s
goal was equalized by Malmö just before time. This time the Umeå
defence gave Malmö´s top striker Luiza Pendyk few chances to
equalize .Her best play caused Umeå´s defensive player Maria
Bergqvist to be given a red card when she grapped Luiza with only the
keeper left to beat. Malmö´s top midfielder Jenny Engwall tore
a ligament in her knee. National team player Karolina Westberg has still
not recovered from her
foot injury at the previous match.
Älvsjö
11 - Astrio 1 (5-0)
Älvsjö: Malin Anderssson (6,64, 85), Lotta Fridh (76,77,86),
Jane Törnqvist (2,27), Johanna Robertsson (35), Victoria Svensson
(37), Jenny Syrén (68).
Astrio: Susanne Persson (85)
The many goals give Alvsjö a big goal difference which is worth one
point if the league ends as close as it seems it will. Poor Astrio had
no chance against the champions. Malin Andersson made some great shots,
but the although it was a decisive win the team did not play at its best.
Kristianstad/Wä
1 - Kopparbergs/Landvetter 3 (1-1)
Kristianstad/Wä: Own goal (31)
Kopparbergs/Landvetter: Kristine Bengtsson 41 (pk), Anna Maria
Eriksson (68), Paula Hasselgren (81).
Many of the home team players returned rather tired after last week´s
many matches of Sweden´s Under- 21National teams. The best U-21 scorer
Sara Johansson had to leave the K/L-side at half time. Kopparbergs/Landvetter
faces Älvsjö on Wednesday in the semifinal of the Swedish Cup-tournament.
Hammarby 0 -
Öster 1(0-1)
Öster: Lisa Johansson (12)
Öster was certainly lucky to win. Hammarby put the away team under
fierce pressure in the seconed half when the ball only three times went
into the Hammarby half of the field. In the very last minute Hammarby
was awarded a p.k. Öster keeper Lena Gunnarsson guessed where Minna
Heponiemi would hit the ball and made a great safe.
Djurgården
2 - Sundbyberg 0 (1-0)
Djurgården: Karolina Rinman (4), Karin Sandbrink (84)
Though it was a Stockholm derby the bottom team Sundbyberg was not able
to surprise the top team Djurgården. 2-0 was a quite honourable
result for Sundbyberg. Djugården´s top scorer Elin Flyborg
was whistled
offside at least ten times.
Bälinge
2 - Kenty 0 (1-0)
Bälinge: Maria Krohn (17), Therese Karling (85)
Some months ago Kenty was clearly ahead of last team Bälinge. Now
there is a great change in Bälinge's performance. Ulrika Karlsson
is back in the goal. Emma Johansson dominated the field during the first
half. The second
one lost in quality. 15 year young Jolanda Odenyo made a interesting appearance
in Bälinge

Hammarby: Salina Olsson
(37, 75, 84)
Astrio«s
defender Therese Brogrde was sent off at the 30 minute mark after her
foul against Minna Heponiemi. Coach Tomas Turesson said " We had
two key players injured a month ago, Malin Engman and Helen Fagerstrm.
The reorganization of our play without them seems to Be working now.

Kopparbergs/Landvetter: Kristin Bengtsson (7)
Djurgrden: Karin Sandbrink
(15), Malin Normelli (35 own goal), Daniella Haglund (69)
Kristin Bengtsson again scored,
but Djurgrden is a better team and is chasing a medal at the end. Malin
Normelli was unlucky to put Djugrden ahead by an own goal. Gjurgrden
however dominated the rest of the game. Karin Sandbrink was the Stockholmers
best player.
Sundbyberg 1 -
Malmö 2 (0-0) Attendance: 197
Sundbyberg: Ulrika Kalte
(64)
Malmö: Luiza Pendyk
(76),Christina Papp (90)
Ulrika Kalte scored her first
league goal for Sundbyberg. The former National Team player put her team
ahead. Sundbyberg, the last team in the Allsvenskan was in shock to be
leading but Malmö scored the victory goal in injury time. "We
missed some of our National team players, and we had to change both the
tactics and some players during the game to get through the Sundbyberg
defense." Assistant coach of MFF Chister Andersson explained.
Öster 0 -
Blinge 2 (0-0) Attendance: 101
Baelinge: Anna Eskhult
(69),Emma Johansson (89)
Formerly in last place, Blinge
played their fourth consecutive undefeated league game. Most of their
many injured players at the start of the league have now recovered - keeper
Ulrika Karlsson too. She chases the jersey of the Swedish OG-team keeper.
Kenty 0 - Kristianstad/W
0
K/W had the very best chance to score a few minutes before time. However
Kenty keeper Elinor Wistrand saved the header from Maria Wanstadius. It
was a very important game for both teams not to lose. "At the end
it was a fair result, though we worried just afterwards to have earned
only one point, K/W coach Stephan kerstrm confessed."
Ume 0 - Älvsjö
2 (0-0)
Älvsjö: Malin Andersson (82), Victoria Svensson (85).
It was important fr champion Älvsjö to take three points in
this difficult away game in Ume. The home team with star Hanna Ljungberg
playing the second half missed a lot of good chances. In the end the most
experienced Älvsjö players tied in scoring; Malin Andersson
who also started the attack finished by Victoria Svensson.

Kristianstad/Wä Sara Johansson (59), Nilla Fischer (84)
Öster: Hanna Höckert (77) pk, Lotta Runesson (85)
Kristianstad/Wä:dominated the game. During the first 3 minutes K/W
created many great chances. Therese Sjögran is currently Sweden´s
most creative player. She slipped the ball through to Sara for her goal
to make it 1-0. However Öster equalized with their first real chance.
Nilla Fischer headed in the ball from a corner kick for K/W to regain
the lead. Lotta Runesson made it 2-2 with her only scoring chance.
"We were very lucky, "Öster coach Per Lindblad confessed after the
game.
Malmö 3 - Kopparbergs/Landvetter 0 (2-0)
Malmö: Luiza Pendyk (4, 20),Christina Papp (75).
With Denise Reddy suspended because of her 3 yellow cards, Therese Lundin
stepped forward and passed the ball to Luiza for the first two scores.
Defender Eva Zeikfalvy, still the young team´s most experienced player
maybe convinced National coach Marika Domanski-Lyfors to give her a chance
in the Swedish Olympic team.
It could be at the cost of Kristin Bengtsson, the only yellow-blue starter
of K/L.
Bälinge 2 - Astrio 1 (2-1)
Bälinge: Emma Johansson (13), Anna Eskhult (25).
Astrio: Amelie Olausson (42)
Bälinge beat Astrio again and it means that the future looks brighter
for the team from Uppsala. Stopper Marina Andersson who recently came
back, again brought confidence in the back line. Veronica Johansson made
a great come-back. Now just keeper Ulrika Karlsson (still injured) is
missing.
Umeå 2 - Sundbyberg 0 (0-0)
Umeå: Anna Sjöström (61), Malin Moström (80).
Watching the first half of this game you wouldn't have known that Sundbyberg
is at the bottom of the Allsvenskan. Sundbyberg has been waiting the entire
spring for the come-back of goal-getters Anette Köver and former
International (56 times) Ulrika Kalte. Sundbyberg meets the three top
teams in a row. It is not likely the team will leave the last position
next week.
Djurgården 5 - Kenty 1 (2-0)
Djurgården: Marie Ewrelius (12), Karolina Rinman (14), Karin
Sandbrink (54), Elin Flyborg (64) pk, Anna Andersson (66).

After have beaten top rival Alvsjö on Sunday the Umeå-team
stayed back in Stockholm to play the newcomers on Tuesday. Sundbyberg
stood up well during the first half and took the lead, but then within
3 minutes of the second half Umeå scored twice. Sundbyberg falls
to last place in the league.
Astrio 0 - Bälinge 6 (0-3)
Bälinge: Emma Johansson (18), Josefine Öqvist (20), Carolin
Hagberg (35), självmål (60), Linda Blom (90), Jenny Ferngren
(90)
Balinge moved out of last place thanks to its second consecutive win of
the year. Coach Per Widén can raise his head and proudly declare
that come-back forward Marina Andersson together with Linda Grynner has
formed a strong stopper-couple.
Hammarby 0 - Älvsjö 4 (0-1)
Älvsjö: Jane Törnqvist (6), Lotta Fridh (25), Victoria
Svensson (63,74)
Former Hammarby player Jane Törnqvit showed the way to victory with
a nice header. Then at the end of the match Victoria Svensson scored twice
the for third time this season. Älvsjö broke a five match record
of just one goal per game.
Kenty 1 - Djurgården 1 (0-1)
Kenty: Therese Sandström (58)
Djurgården: Jessika Sundh (25)
Kenty took another unexpected point against a top team, the same result
as against Älvsjö. The play of Kenty´s previous game in
Kristianstad gave nohint of what was coming this time.
Kopparbergs/Landvetter 1 - Malmö 3 (0-2)
Kopparbergs/Landvetter: Camilla Ackerfors (62)
Malmö: Luiza Pendyk (17, 36),Jenny Engwall (48)
Malmö got revenge for its loss in the Swedish cup against Landvetter.
Though midfielder Linda Green was sick, coach Lena Videkull managed to
put together a very strong side. Malmö changed succesfully from "The
Diamond" to 4-4-2.
It is feared that K/L:s great national team player Kristin Bengtsson's
career may end because of a serious back injury confirmed by an X-ray
last week. Kicki however played the first half which could have been her
last.
Öster 0 - Kristianstad/Wä 0
Both teams failed to finish their chances. It was an important match for
bothteams to win so as not to be involved in the relegation part of the
table. K/W played very well but too slow, Öster had more and better
shots on goal. K/W keeper Lotta Karlsson made many great saves.

Malmö: Jenny Engwall (2), Luiza Pendyk (52)
Malmö dominated against the newcomers and should have scored more
goals. Jenny Engwall was the sharpest player in the Malmö midfield.
Malmö has taken over the top place in the league
Djurgården 2 - Kopparbergs/Landvetter 0 (1-0)
Djurgården Elin Flyborg (21, 71)
A key game for Kopparberg/Landvetter to stay in the top three. Instead
scores by Elin Flyborg` put Djurgården in that position. This round
showed to be one of the most decisive.
June 23, 2000
Bälinge 4 - Öster 3 (4-1)
Bälinge: Linda Grynner (21), Josefin Öqvist (24), Anna
Eskhult (30), Sara Call (35)
Öster: Linda Alrikzon (6), Lotta Runesson (58), Jessica Karlsson
(79)
Balinge took their last chance to leave the bottom of the Allsvenskan.
This was their first win of the year. Öster scored first and then
Bälinge took control of the match with four goals. Though Öster
scored two goals in the second half they were not that close.
Hammarby 5 - Astrio 1 (2-1)
Hammarby: Minna Heponiemi (29, 81), Malin Engman (35), Salina Olsson
(58), Linda Fagerström (90)
Astrio: Maria Talmark (39).
Minna Heponiemi showed the way to victory, not only by her two goals but
her very good job on the front line. Her speed was decisive in the second
half when Hammarby increased its endeavours.
Attendance 264
Kristianstad/Wä 2 - Kenty 0 (1-0)
Kristianstad/Wä: Therese Sjögran (8,65)
Kristianstad has not lost a single home game in the first half of the
league. On the other hand K/W has not won an away game either.. The most
entertaining player of match was Therese Sjögran, perhaps the best
player in the Allsvenskan.
Älvsjö 1 - Umeå 2 (1-2)
Älvsjö: Johanna Robertsson (15)
Umeå Frida Östberg (19), Hanna Marklund (31)
Attendance184
For the first time Älvsjö lost a home game against Umeå.
Take it as a sign that Alvsjö is not the dominant team in Sweden
any longer. Two corner kicks gave Umeå the chances to score. Älvsjö
tried hard in the second half but could not control Umeå's aggressive
play.

Älvsjö: Jane Törnqvist (55)
Champions Alvsjo had their first win in four matches. Malin Andersson,
the key midfielder played the whole game but her team mate in the National
Team Cecilia Sandell had to be replaced in the second half.
Alvsjö coach Anders Johansson gave credit to the new players for
having improved its defence 100 percent since the first rounds.

Kristianstad/Wä: Therese Sjögran (66)
Kristianstad/Wä had spent too much effort when beating neighbor Malmö
in the previous round. Although Kopparberg/Landvetter was missing national
player Kristin Bengtsson because of her back injury they played a more
intense attacking game.
Umeå IK 1 - Malmö FF 1 (0-0)
Scoring:
Umeå: IK Emma Lindqvist (56)
Malmö: FF Luiza Pendyk (88)
The last time these two top teams played each other was in the semi final
round of the Swedish championships. It was a draw then also. However this
time Malmo equalized very late.
Umea had most shots on goals. Under-18 National keeper Johanna Fischer
replaced Women's National keeper Caroline Jönsson, who received a
red card in Kristianstad.
Sundbyberg 0 - Djurgården 0BR> This was
a Stockholm derby. The more experienced Djurgården should have had
an easy win but Sundbyberg fought strongly especially during the last
25 minutes of the game. Sundbyberg pulled back their most experienced
players Malin Swedbergand and Julia Carlsson to calm down the Djurgården
attacks.

played each other on seven occasions. 6 wins and one draw for Alvsjö.
This was the third match in a row that Alvsjö did not win. That record
is unique in its team's history. Mallin Andersson entered the game in
the second half.You can never predict a derby.

This was also a derby for the southern province. Malmö, the number
one
team of the league was defeated by Kristianstad/Wö for the first
time in
ten years on home soil. Malmö's national team keeper Caroline Jönsson
was sent off after a foul against K/W forward Sara Johansson who had several
chances to score. Midfielder Therese Sjögran was the outstanding
player on the field.

Balinge is still at the bottom though earning one point against top team
Umeå who was down 2-1 at half time. The come-back of Sara Call has
strenghend the Bälinge team a lot. The best kind of play was shown
by
Balinge. Ulrika Karlsson, the top keeper of Bälinge still suffers
from back
pains. Umeå's keeper Ulla-Karin Thelin, many times on the Swedish
national team'together with Ulrika came back.

Scoring
Sundbyberg: Kajsa Fransson (44), Julia Carlsson (52), Tina Karlsson (56,72).
Astrio: Åsa Stenberg (23), Maria Talmark (32).
Astrio got two lucky strikes to take the lead 2-0. Sundbyberg fought back
into the match and scored their first goal just before the ref blew the
last whistle of the first half.
June 4 Malmö 4 - Bälinge 1 (2-0)
Scoring
Malmö: Christina Albertsen (6,31,69), Luiza Pendyk (47)
Bälinge: Josefin Öqvist (70).
Baelinge, the last team of the league was close to equalizing on a Malmö
self goal for it seemed that keeper Caroline Jönsson had cleared
the ball from behind the line. Balinge concentrated on stopping Malmö´s
topscorer Luiza Pendyk but did left Christina Albertsen alone. Ulrika
Karlsson is stillsuffering a back injury and did not play, but coach Per
Widén said that she might be back for next match against Umeå.
Malmö´s Jenny Engwall was suspended after two yellow cards in
previous games.
Kopparbergs/Landvetter 0 - Öster 1 (0-1)
Scoring
Öster: Anna Mörstam (34)
A surprise result because Kopparbergs/Landvetter seemed to be on the run.
Öster was much more committed than last week. -"Otherwise we would
have dropped this game zero to ten." Öster coach Per Lindblad said.
Djurgården 4 Kristianstad/Wä 0 (3-0)
Scoring
Djurgården: Anna Andersson (6,45), Elin Flyborg (34, 87)
Thanks to Kopparberg/Landvetter dropping the Stockholmers now are chasingthe
top three. Anna and Elin assisted each other at their scores
Kenty 1 - Älvsjö 1 (0-0)
Scoring
Kenty: Angelica Karlsson (88)
Älvsjö Victoria Svensson (65)
The biggest surprise of the league so far. Especially the strength of
Kenty to fight back and equalize though Älvsjö had put some
hard pressure during the entire match. Elinor Wistrand, the keeper of
Kenty was awarded Player of the Match.
Umeå 3 - Hammarby 2 (2-2)
Scoring
Umeå: Hanna Ljungberg (32,66), Tina Nordlund (36)
Hammarby: Linda Lekander 24, Salina Olsson 42.
Hanna Ljungberg seems to have fully recovered after her injury and she
is likely to be nominated to the next Swedish national team against Spain.
The players who participated in the match of this Thursday in France seemed
tired - not surprisingly.

Astrio 2 - Öster 0 (2-0)
Scoring
Astrio: Maria Talmark (1), Ulrika Björn (42).
Astrio of Halmstad has sharpened its defence. The average number of goals
against were a disastrous six each match. Ulrika Bjorn is one of he top
scorers of the league.
Älvsjö 0 - Malmö 0
The two teams met in last year´s Swedish Championship final. Malmö's
top scorer was relegated for this match because of two previous yellow
cards. Malmö's keeper Caroline Joensson seems likely to replace Ulrika
Karlsson as first keeper for Sweden.
Bälingen 0 - Kopparbergs/Landvetter 3 (0-2)
Scoring
Kopparbergs/Landvetter: Anna Maria Eriksson (3), Malin Ehrnberg (6), Kristin
Bengtsson (87)
Baelinge,last year a top team during the first half of the league is now
the last team of the league. Kopparbergs/Landvetter is close to the top,
which is also a surprise.
Hammarby 4 - Kenty 0 (2-0)
Scoring
Hammarby: Minna Heponiemi (8, 90), Salina Olsson (13), Cecilia Rongedahl
(63).
The two top forwards scored the three goals. Hammarby´s former English
National team player Karen Farley seems to be resting a long time because
of a bad injury in the previous game.
Djurgården 1 - Umeå 1 (1-1)
Scoring
Djurgården: Karolina Rinman (16)
Umeå: Sofia Eriksson (24)
Djurgården of Stockholm did very well against the top team of Umeå
playing against several national team players. Djurgården missed
some chances in the first half, as did Umeå in the second. They
were both unable to make decisive scores. Hanna Ljungberg of Umeå
came back in 2nd. She has missed some of Swedens internationals. However
she is still not fit to play team Sweden´s away match in France,
that goes for the European Championships qualification.

Comment
Jane Törnqvist scored the goal of the game, a volley from 30 meters
and Malin Andersson ,her Sweden´s National Teammate, showed the way
to victory with her first league goal of the year. This was the first
game that Älvsl has scored more than two goals.
Malin, Jane and the other internationals maybe heading
to the UEFA gamein Holland next Wednesday.

to add something new to the top of the league
Astrio 0 Umeå 6 (0-3)
Umeå: Tina Nordlund (10, 60, 65), Malin Moström (17),
Emma Lindqvist (39), Therese Kapstad (80).
Comment
0 for and 15 goals against in two consecutive matches for this year´s
promoted team from the west coast (Halmstad). However Umeå from
the north is the favourite to challenge champion Alvsjö this season.
Bälinge 1 - Djurgården 1(0-0)
Bälinge: Linda Blom (40)
Djurgården: Anna Andersson (71)
Comment
Balinge of Uppsala had a bad start but saved the first point in its previous
match in Kristianstad. Now it has improved and Djugården (Stockholm)
lost its first points. Sara Call was a starter for the first time since
she was badly wounded her knee last summer just before the WWC '99.
Hammarby 0 - Malmö 1 (0-1)
Malmö: Luiza Pendyk (31)
Comment
Unfortunately for Sweden, Luiza Pendyk has played internationals for Poland,
so she cannot play for Sweden though she is the highest ranked forward
in Sweden.
Kenty 1 - Kopparbergs/Landvetter 1 (0-1)
Kenty: Charlotte Rohlin (88)
Kopparbergs/Landvetter: Kristin Bengtsson (27)
Comment
Kenty of Linköping took its first points at its home ground in Fredriksberg.
Since the win in Sundbyberg last Sunday the team has gained self confidence.

Johansson of Öster concluded two very nice attacking moves with two
goals.

Kristianstad/Wä had a 3-1 lead against Bälinge. But the lst
kick of the game was the one of Petra Hemlin for 3-3 seconds before time.

May 2 and May 3
By Thorsten Frennstedt
First sensation of this year in the Allsvenskan (Sweden's
premier league) was Kopparberg/Landvetter's draw (0-0) in their away match
against top ranked Umeå.
The attendance was the highest of this new season 1,208,
although it is still cold up in the north and the match was played on
artificial turf. Umea is still missing top foward Hanna Ljungberg who
has a knee injury.
