Aussies are currently playing in two Nordic leagues, and Beyond 90 will be there to follow their progress each week!
Just four rounds remain after Round 22 of the Damallsvenskan over the weekend.
Deborah-Anne de la Harpe provided a crucial late assist for the only goal in Norrköping‘s 1-0 away win over Kristianstads. De la Harpe played a full game, with team-mate Vesna Milivojević contributing 78 minutes, while for Kristianstads, Amy Sayer was on the pitch for 83 minutes and Remy Siemsen for 70 minutes.
The result sees Norrköping topping a group of four teams containing Aussies between fifth and 8th place.

After scoring the two opening goals, Vittsjö GIK had to work hard to secure all three points in their 3-2 away win over IF Brommapojkarna, a team battling to stay out of the relegation zone. Showing once again a liking for her time with Vittsjö, Daniela Galic scored her team’s second goal in her 75 minutes on the park.
The battle of the top two giants saw Aivi Luik‘s BK Häcken dispatch Hammarby 2-0 at home, with both goals occurring in the opening 25 minutes. Luik was back in action for her team and played out the entire match.
Hammarby’s loss allowed Malmö FF to join them in equal second place after a 2-1 home win over Linköping. Both Courtney Nevin for Malmö and Polly Doran for Linköping played every minute of the contest. The goals from the home side can be viewed below.
It was an absolute goal fest when AIK took on bottom side Alingsås, with nine goals on show in a 6-3 win for Jada Whyman‘s side. Were the three goals conceded because Whyman was absent? Who can say?

With just four Toppserien rounds remaining, bottom-of-the-ladder Kolbotn gained a valuable point in their Round 23 away 2-2 draw with fourth-placed Lyn, and could have taken all three points if not for a missed penalty. It was a good outing for the Football Ferns in the Kolbotn team, with Jacqui Hand assisting in one goal and scoring another, for which Olivia Chance provided an assist. All three Kiwis, including captain Liz Anton, played the whole match.

With the news that Nordsjælland captain Winonah Heatley has moved on, there are no longer any players in the Kvindeliga with an Aussie connection.
