A lot of crazy things can happen in football. For example: teams favored in a game can end up
losing by disproportionate numbers. Of course in the end the better teams tend to win out. Time is
a factor in every season and as things wear on, the smaller clubs with their tiny budgets just
cannot keep up.
The 14th round of the Allsvenskan kicked off with GAIS hosting Malmö FF on Sunday the 26th of
June. Now before I get to the good stuff in this game, I wanted to first consider the position that
Rikard Norling is in right now. Malmö had a phenomenal season last year and then started this one
with a bang as well.

The struggling kings of Sweden Malmö FF have finally ended their trainer speculations by
hiring Rikard Norling (formerly of Assyriska and AIK).
