Elfsborg coach Jimmy Thelin has chosen to save several players before the match against BP. Simon Lundevall, Alex Dyer and Stefan Ishizaki all started on the bench. BP listened carefully to the sports radio to monitor the situation during the match between Dalkurd and Djurgården. They were under 20 minutes after a punishment of Elfsborg Chinedu Obasi. And when Dalkurd received just before the break, only one goal from the Uppsalal team could thank and greet all Swedes for this period of BP.

But the Brommapojkarna wanted more. In the second half, they progressed. And in the 68th minute, it gave a dividend. Johan Falkmar entered the penalty area and a passive defense from Elfsborg allowed him to record on Philip Hellqvist. BP had recognized. BP's heel of seven men could be heard in an otherwise quiet arena.

Five minutes later, it was again the hour. Kristján Flóki Finnbogason was replaced by a pole and suddenly, BP was able to look at the morning air, the direction and three points within reach.

Jimmy Thelin tried to strengthen Elfsborg and exchange Lundevall, Bajrami and Prodell. But BP could stay out of the way and win three points.

The battle for the qualifying ground will now be decided in the final round. BP, now in qualifying, has two points more than Dalkurd. They have everything in their own hands and a win against the infamous three-dimensional trelleborg society in Grimsta on Sunday means an anguish against Eskilstuna later in November.

In Elfsborgsbanken, former national team player Emir Bajrami played in his last home game for Elfsborg. Until next season, he will go to training in the club's youth teams.
