AIK 2-2 IFK Göteborg result, stats and report

Alexander Simmelhack's second-half strike was the difference as IFK Göteborg ground out a 1-0 win at Brommapojkarna, with the visitors' superior threat in front of goal proving too much for a home side that simply could not convert their chances.

Hjörtur Hermannsson's headed goal on 61 minutes was enough to give IFK Göteborg all three points against Örgryte in the Swedish Allsvenskan, with the hosts holding firm despite Örgryte creating the match's clearest opportunity.

IFK Göteborg dominated large portions of this Swedish Allsvenskan fixture but could not convert their volume of attacking play into a winning position, and Elfsborg punished them with a stoppage-time equaliser to claim a point that the statistics suggest they did not entirely earn.

AIK have let standards slip at the worst possible time. IFK Göteborg arrive in Stockholm with form and desire. This one matters.

IFK Göteborg head into Friday's Allsvenskan clash carrying genuine home form and a point to prove after a patchy wider run. Västerås SK arrive organised but limited in attack, and the only question that matters is whether Göteborg have the desire to see it out.

Two sides in contrasting but equally troubled form meet in Blekinge on Monday evening, with Mjällby searching for home stability and IFK Göteborg carrying the weight of a defence that has conceded 38 goals in 17 league matches.
