Squad

Warner Hahn is the hero from the spot

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

Match

Hammarby march on in the cup

GIF Sundsvall are out and Hammarby go through, 2‑2 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Player ratings

Frederik Winther shuts the door

Defensive actions: 34, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Market

Hammarby say no — this time

The offer from Esbjerg for Victor Lind was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Victor Eriksson

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 27 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Market

Helsingborg watching Warner Hahn

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Hammarby have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad

Tempers go at Hammarby

Warner Hahn 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.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Tesfaldet Tekie

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 20 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Match

Nikola Vasić sends Hammarby past Orebro

It finished 1‑0, and it was Nikola Vasić’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Hammarby.

The terraces

The boos come down from three sides

“We pay for this every fortnight. The least we want is somebody who looks like he cares.” 5 of the 23 senior players walked off into it; the rest were not playing.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Victor Lind

Successful dribbles: 26. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Hammarby say no — this time

The offer from IFK Norrkoping for Dennis Collander was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Victor Lind stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Victor Lind and Hammarby agree another 5 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Tempers go at Hammarby

Warner Hahn 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.

Market

The Victor Lind conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: SonderjyskE will make the call about Victor Lind this week. Hammarby have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Match

A bad afternoon for Hammarby against Djurgarden

1‑2 to Djurgarden, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Player ratings

One of those days for Paulos Abraham

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.48, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

Markus Karlsson 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.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Tesfaldet Tekie

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 28 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Successful dribbles: 27. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Felix Jakobsson asks to leave Hammarby

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

SonderjyskE join the queue for Victor Lind

Add another name to the list: SonderjyskE have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Victor Lind. The answer from Hammarby has not changed — yet.

Market

Kalmar FF come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Hammarby did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad

Warner Hahn 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 Hammarby this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Frederik Winther

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 21 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Player ratings

Victor Eriksson shuts the door

Defensive actions: 20, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Match

Nikola Vasić the difference as Hammarby beat GIF Sundsvall

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Nikola Vasić. 1‑0 against GIF Sundsvall, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.
