hjältar seemed to prefer attacking in the middle.
Rättvik were mostly trying to use their skill at attacking on the flanks.
J. Kaijanen behaved like an inexperienced youth player after 7 minutes as he gave the ball away to
T. Holtenling. Lucky for him though, there was no goal.
0 - 0 was the score after the first half.
Possession in this half belonged to hjältar, who controlled the ball 58 percent of the time.
After 50 minutes Rättvik's
T. Holtenling limped slightly after a late challenge, but he was able to continue.
The counterattack by hjältar resulted in a free kick that
D. Urquijo bent under the crossbar - 1 - 0!
Central attacks were the recipe of the day for hjältar, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity.
75 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as
D. Urquijo broke through, making the score 2 - 0 for hjältar.
hjältar managed to extend their lead to 3 - 0 when
D. Siljanovski cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper.
hjältar claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 60 percent.

S. Håkansson.
On the other hand,
J. Kaijanen's play was disheartening.
The most dominating Rättvik player was without a doubt

The match ends 3 - 0.
