The BK Hacken Post

10 May 2038
From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad10 May 2038

Max Croon is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Max Croon: 3 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Squad10 May 2038

A knee injury of the worst kind for Aleksander Damnjanović Nilsson

46 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. BK Hacken lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match5 May 2038

Cup progress for BK Hacken

A 1‑1 win over Halmstad, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Player ratings10 May 2038

Nobody could get near Marcus Claesson

Successful dribbles: 33. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings10 May 2038

Age has not caught Sanders Ngabo yet — 8.09

At 33 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.09 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Angel Acosta puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at BK Hacken, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad10 May 2038

Tempers go at BK Hacken

Pontus Dahbo 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.

Only the photograph left for Emil Larsson

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Emil Larsson will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around BK Hacken the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Match8 May 2038

The run at home goes on for BK Hacken

10 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

The BK Hacken Post

From our football correspondent Triumph

Match9 May 2037

Sanders Ngabo sends BK Hacken through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Sanders Ngabo obliged against GIF Sundsvall. 2‑1 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is BK Hacken.

Player ratings11 May 2037

Both of them Sanders Ngabo's — 8.98

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.98, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Player ratings11 May 2037

Philipp Widmer could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 7.74

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 7.74, 0 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Player ratings11 May 2037

Tim Prica, 35, rolls back the years — 8.60

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.60 at 35, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Market11 May 2037

Tim Prica is on his way

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

Match9 May 2037

Nobody wants to play BK Hacken right now

4 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

Squad11 May 2037

Leandro Lescano 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 BK Hacken this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad11 May 2037

Words at BK Hacken training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Nikola Zečević 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.

Player ratings11 May 2037

Marcus Claesson in the eights

A performance of 8.96 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.
