Saved penalty Almost an hour into the match, the referee pointed to the penalty spot when Malmö's Lasse Berg Johnsen was hit by the ball inside the penalty box.
Degerfors' Arman Taranis, who had joined the club just two weeks earlier, came to take the penalty. But Malmö's Robin Olsen saved his attempt.
"He is at his peak - Taranis was probably nervous. It was the perfect moment for Olsen, who went in the right direction," said HBO Max expert commentator Anders Andersson.

The emotional match eventually ended 1-1, and Malmö missed a golden chance to take third spot in the table.
