AIK seven points in the lead

Despite being one man short for 30 minutes AIK managed to hold on to their two goal lead and beat IFK Norrköping in front of a record crowd. Derek Boateng played for 90 minutes for the first time this season and started the scoring with a dazzling shot from 30 meters, 19 minutes into the game. Nicklas Carlsson then added another goal on a pass from Boateng following a corner. The referee was the, as usual, hopeless Keijo Hyvärinen who, according to reports, had great trouble with keeping control of the game. Mattias Moström received an injury after a reckless challenge from a Norrköping player and was substituted for Rubarth after only 25 minutes. Rubarth was himself substituted for keeper Kjell Jönsson after 59 minutes, Daniel Öhrlund receiving a red card after handling the ball outside the area. The call was dubious according to completely subjective reports.

Since Gais lost 3-2 at home against Mjällby, AIK now leads the Second division by seven points. Should Öster manage to beat Väsby Utd on Wednesday the lead will shrink to five points with twelve games remaining.

Aha, so one more GF-celebrity has started blogging. This will be interesting.

Well, about Daniel Örlund's red card... there was nothing "dubious" about it - straight red, no question.
