Boardroom

Silverware for Djurgarden

They will talk about this season in this town for a long time. The trophy comes home with the squad, and the route is already agreed.

Match

Djurgarden through in the cup

A 1‑0 win over Halmstad, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Match

Djurgarden strike at the death to beat Halmstad

There were 89 minutes on the clock and Halmstad had all but banked the point. Football rarely reads the room, and Djurgarden did not stop to explain themselves.

Squad

A fracture rules David Rodríguez out for 59 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Djurgarden will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad

Kristian Strømland Lien in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Djurgarden this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Jeppe Okkels runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Words at Djurgarden training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Daniel Stensson is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Bo Hegland

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Squad

Ahmed Saeed is the division's best young player this month

At 19 he has spent a month being better than everybody his age in the league, which is a different and harder thing than one good afternoon. Djurgarden will try very hard not to make too much of it.

Squad

David Rodríguez breaks a bone — 76 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 76 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings

Ahmed Saeed, 19, plays like he has been here for years — 7.71

A mark of 7.71 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 19-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Squad

Max Croon: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Djurgarden have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Kristian Strømland Lien in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Djurgarden this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Bo Hegland

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Words at Djurgarden training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matias Siltanen is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Match

Djurgarden through in the cup

A 2‑1 win over GIF Sundsvall, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Player ratings

Jacob Une, 33, rolls back the years — 8.10

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.10 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Player ratings

Oskar Fallenius runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Jeppe Okkels in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Djurgarden this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Loan watch

Bernard Eide has seen enough of Atvidaberg

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Djurgarden, and 0 appearances in 9 say he has earned the hearing.

The terraces

Djurgarden supporters have found a favourite in Bo Hegland

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Bo Hegland has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match

A bad afternoon for Djurgarden against Falkenberg

0‑2 to Falkenberg, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Cayetano Bolzán falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

Piotr Johansson gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market

Miro Tenho is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Djurgarden is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Kristian Strømland Lien in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Djurgarden this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Djurgarden training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Daniel Stensson is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match

3 matches without a goal for Djurgarden

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 3 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Match

Djurgarden come up short against IFK Goteborg

IFK Goteborg left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Miro Tenho gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match

Djurgarden through in the cup

A 3‑2 win over Falkenberg, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Market

Djurgarden turn down Malmo FF for Jeppe Okkels

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Player ratings

Ahmed Saeed, 18, plays like he has been here for years — 7.71

A mark of 7.71 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 18-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Market

Eyes on Oskar Fallenius again

The phone has started ringing about Oskar Fallenius again, and this time the name on the line is Malmo FF. Djurgarden are listening politely and promising nothing.

Boardroom

Djurgarden to lose Kalipha Jawla for free

There is no worse way to lose a footballer. Kalipha Jawla has pre-agreed a move away, which means every appearance between now and June is made by a man the club can no longer sell, and somebody upstairs will be asked why the contract was allowed to get here.

Player ratings

Bo Hegland runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings

Santeri Haarala has a hand in both — 7.85

One scored and one made, which is a different afternoon from scoring twice and an easier one to overlook. Marked 7.85, and involved in 2 of his side's goals.

Squad

Tempers go at Djurgarden

Jeppe Okkels was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Daniel Stensson falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.
