Match Report: Ljungskile 3–2 Örebro | Sweden Superettan – June 27, 2026
A dramatic second-half comeback saw Ljungskile edge past Örebro 3–2 in a pulsating Superettan encounter at Skarsjövallen on Saturday evening. The hosts trailed twice but showed tremendous character to snatch all three points, leaving Örebro devastated after a late collapse.
Fast Start from Örebro
Örebro, looking to build momentum in the promotion race, began brightly. Forward Erik Björndahl opened the scoring in the 8th minute, reacting quickest to a rebound after Ljungskile goalkeeper Oliver Gustafsson had saved a fierce drive. The visitors pressed for a second, but Ljungskile gradually settled and equalised through a well-worked set piece. Centre-back Viktor Agardius rose highest to head home a corner in the 22nd minute.
The game opened up, with both sides creating chances. Örebro regained the lead just before half-time when midfielder David Seger drove a shot from 20 metres that deflected past Gustafsson. The 2–1 score line flattered the visitors, but Ljungskile had shown enough to suggest they could respond.
Second Half: Ljungskile’s Resilience Pays Off
Ljungskile came out with renewed energy after the interval. Manager Jonas Lundén introduced fresh legs in attack, and the tactical tweak paid immediate dividends. In the 55th minute, substitute Filip Almström Tähti latched onto a through ball and squared for Alexander Faltsetas, who fired home from close range to make it 2–2.
The equaliser swung momentum firmly in Ljungskile’s favour. They pushed forward relentlessly, and in the 79th minute, they completed the turnaround. A swift counter-attack ended with winger Isak Jönsson cutting inside and curling a sublime shot into the top corner, leaving Örebro goalkeeper Oscar Jansson with no chance.
Örebro threw men forward in stoppage time but could not find an equaliser, with Gustafsson making a crucial save from a late header. Ljungskile’s fans erupted at the final whistle, celebrating a victory that keeps their survival hopes alive.
