October 22, 2001 Damallsvenskan, Sweden´s premier league 21st round results By Thorsten Frennstedt
October 20thBälinge 2 Kristianstad/Wä 1 (0-0) Bälinge Maria Säfström (49), Josefin Öqvist (67) Kristianstad/Wä Nilla Fischer (PK 82)
The defeat jeopardizes K/W:s chances to stay in the league next season.. K/W has a very poor attack. Speedy Anna Eskhult gave Maria Säfström the ball in an extremly free position to score 1-0. Linda Blom, a former striker, has become a useful midfielder. She assisted on both goals. Without support Therese Björk could not pose a threat for the Bälinge back line.
Djugården 0 Kopparbergs/Landvetter 0Some of the best strikers of the Allsvenskan were to be seen on the pitch today. Kopparbergs/Landvetter was the most prolific team of the two. Ulrika Björn and Marit Björstedt squandered their chances hitting posts and shooting wide.
HiF Alingsås 0 Umeå 5 (0-4) Malin Moström (10, 90), Maria Bergqvist (26), Hanna Ljungberg (27, 34).
The new champions gave a show, at least during the first half. Hanna Ljungbergcould have been rested but the entire Umeå team seemed to enjoy themselves.
Mallbacken 4 Älvsjö 2 (2-2) Mallbacken Jenny Larsson (24), Birgitta Stjernberg (31), Jenny Monsén (40,74). Älvsjö Malin Nyqvist (8)Victoria Svensson (41) Mallbacken took just one point in four previous games. Älvsjö was expected to tie the match in the second half although Mallbacken had started strongly. Jenny Monsén, the top striker successfully challenged former Swedish national team sweeper Cecilia Sandell who had been forced to come-back due to many injuries in the Älvsjö team.
Sunnanå 0 Malmö 3 (0-2) Luiza Pendyk (24), Malin Andersson (33), Natalia Folbrycht (72).
Because of Älvsjö´s defeat Malmö advanced to second place in the league. It was a good game, although the home side was not expected to be a threat to Malmö. Denise Reddy replaced National team back Karolina Westberg, who has not recovered fully from an injury. Denise possessed the ball well all the way. Luiza Pendyk sent a rocket of a header into the net for 0-1, and Malin Andersson pulled the trigger from 25 meters for 0-2. Natalia Folbrycht scored her first Allsvenskan goal in her first match, and the second in her second match as a sub.
Öster 1 Hammarby 2 (0-1) Hammarby Malin Söderlind (10), Lisa Lindahl (54) Öster Monica Josefsson (88)
The defeat made it definite. Öster will be relegated from the Allsvenskan next season. Hammarby still has a chance. Hammarby controlled the match thanks to the early goals in boths halves. Öster had some chances to, but squandered two out of three.
