Charles Sagoe Junior's second-half strike secured a 2-1 comeback victory for Kalmar FF over Mjällby AIF in the Allsvenskan, with the forward's decisive goal turning the match on its head after a frantic opening. The visitors had drawn first blood inside three minutes when Elliot Stroud finished from William Granath's pass, but Kalmar responded smartly through Aboubacar Keita's equaliser on 17 minutes, assisted by Melker Hallberg.

The turning point arrived on 69 minutes when Charles Sagoe Junior, unassisted, fired Kalmar ahead, a lead they would not relinquish despite a flurry of late yellow cards for Mjällby that saw Tony Miettinen, Jesper Gustavsson, Viktor Gustafson and William Granath all booked. Victor Larsson also went into the book for the hosts as the game grew increasingly feisty, though no red cards were shown and VAR was not required.

Charles Sagoe Junior, with a rating of 8.6 out of ten and a goal from his forward position, was the standout performer.
