Aussies are currently playing in two Nordic leagues, and Beyond 90 will be there to follow their progress each week!
A bagful of points was collected by teams with Aussies in Round 21 of the Damallsvenskan, and there has also been some midweek Svenska Cup and Europa Cup qualification action.
Amy Sayer is in red-hot form for Kristianstads, continuing on from her player of the match performance last round. She scored her team’s first and provided an assist for the second goal in their 2-1 away win over Vittsjö GIK.
Sayer played a full match, with teammate Remy Siemsen contributing 75 minutes. Daniela Galic played 71 minutes for the home side.
Kristianstads also tasted victory in their midweek Svenska Cup match, defeating lower-tier Helsingborg 2-1 away, with Sayer starting and Siemsen named on the bench.
Courtney Nevin played the entire match of Malmö FF‘s 2-1 home win over Rosengård, a result that keeps her team in third place but puts Rosengård into the bottom three – not something fans of the competition see very often.
Norrköping overcame Växjö 2-0 at home, with Vesna Milivojević playing 73 minutes and Deborah-Anne de la Harpe putting in a full shift for their team’s fifth straight win.
It’s been a fabulous few days for Polly Doran‘s Linköping in a tough season for them. They first belted IF Brommapojkarna 4-1 at home in the league, then backed that up with a midweek 6-0 away win over lower-tier Rada in the Svenska Cup. Doran played a full match in the win at home, but sat out the Cup game.
AIK didn’t make things easy for second-placed Hammarby on the road, despite conceding in the third minute. They competed hard for the remainder of the match, going down by just the one goal. Jada Whyman played a full game for AIK.
Aivi Luik was absent for BK Häcken‘s 2-0 away win over bottom side Alingsås, keeping Häcken at the top of the league. She was also not on the matchcard for their home midweek Europa Cup qualification 4-0 victory over Polish side Katowice.
