On the other pitches IFK Göteborg saved it's ass. Just by one point. Brommapojkarna forced to play the promotion/relegation playoff.
PAOK is not a club. PAOK is a cultural phenomenon.

In the 95th minute that is. After missing a penalty in the 89th minute.

Malmö in the lead on a penalty in the 55th minute.

Malmo won the title last week. Today's match was just for the formalities.

When you can't win the title at home vs a team that got relegated, you've already lost it. You're mentally weak and one way or another, you will pay for it.

Elfsborg proved it in the clearest way today: they went to the title-decider (which shouldn't be if they had just beat Deferfors) and had 0.06 xG.

Was robbed of a clear penalty in the first half though. While Malmö got a penalty on a 50-50 situation. Feel sad for Elfsborg.

I have seen only the last 15 minutes: Malmo sit back way too much but Elfsborg did not create much either. Why not cross that ball more and hope? No, they always had to attack the area with direct short passes to find the gap, but Malmo was all behind the line of the ball, so it didn't work at all.

Sweden has 2 types of seasons:

a) pure chaos

b) Malmo domination

We're at b) in 2024.

This Malmo team will be very interesting to follow in Europe. Don't remember seeing a Swedish team this dominant since Gothenburg in the 1990s.
