Johan Hove breaks a bone — 65 days out

Erik Flataker sends AIK past IFK Goteborg
It finished 3‑1, and it was Erik Flataker’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to AIK.
The dugout24 Sep 2029
Jakub Ojrzyński 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.
In brief
- Loan watch Daniel Claesson counts the days
