Aussies are currently playing in two Nordic leagues, and Beyond 90 will be there to follow their progress each week!
Aussies were involved in all but one game of Round 19 of the Damallsvenskan on the weekend. Some midweek Svenska Cup fixtures have also taken place since then.
Kristianstads defeated IF Brommapojkarna 2-1 away from home, hanging on in a scoreless second half. Amy Sayer played the whole match, while Remy Siemsen was substituted in the 91st minute.
There were three Aussie starters in the game between the home side, Vittsjö GIK, and Norrköping. Daniela Galic played a full match for Vittsjö in their 2-0 loss, while Deborah-Anne de la Harpe scored the visitors’ first goal and received a yellow card in her 72 minutes. Vesna Milivojević also played 82 minutes for Norrköping.
Galic also played just over an hour in her team’s midweek 3-0 away win in the Svenska Cup over lower-tier Jitex.
Polly Doran didn’t take part in Linköping‘s 2-2 home draw with Piteå. The point is a welcome one nonetheless, given Linköping’s position near the bottom of the ladder.
AIK went down 2-1 at home against Växjö, with Jada Whyman playing a full match, while Angie Beard is still absent from their match card.
They had better luck in their midweek Svenska Cup game, defeating lower-tier Enskede 6-2 away from home.
Aivi Luik played 87 minutes of BK Häcken‘s decisive 3-0 home win over FC Rosengård, with all goals scored in a 12-minute period in the second half.
Second-placed Malmö FF put four unanswered away goals past Alingsås, with Courtney Nevin on the field for the duration.
