When the other two clubs from Stockholm met tonight AIK was present throughout the broadcast without even playing in the same league. In the studio head coach Rikard Norling made an appearance as guest analyst and during the breaks short clips with AIK match sequences were shown. Norling made, as he has the few times I've met him, a very polite and correct impression and answered, I thought, intelligently and with insight.I can't help but really like this man.
The game was good, especially the first half which ended with Djurgården 2-1 in the lead. Hammarby got back in with a few minutes to spare and both teams should feel displeased with the result as both, especially Djurgården, had opportunities to come away with three points. Mattias Jonson, recently bought from Norwich to DIF, was a force during his 65 minutes on the pitch. Jonson has been the third choice striker for the national team and competes with Johan Elmander of Bröndby, Marcus Allbäck of FC Köpenhavn and possibly Fredrik Berglund of Esbjerg for the spots after the obvious starters Larsson and Ibrahimovic. Henok Goitom could also challenge should he receive more playing time at Udinese.
