FC Rosengård Women 4–1 Djurgårdens Women: Damallsvenskan Dominance Continues
FC Rosengård Women delivered a commanding performance at Malmö IP on 25 June 2026, cruising to a 4–1 victory over Djurgårdens IF in the Swedish Damallsvenskan. The result underlined Rosengård’s status as one of the league’s most feared attacking sides, with goals spread across the first and second halves.
The home side took control early. In the 12th minute, Swedish international Olivia Schough slotted home from close range after a well-worked corner routine. Rosengård doubled the lead just before the half-hour mark when forward Mia Persson ran onto a through ball from Filippa Angeldal and finished coolly past the Djurgården goalkeeper.
Djurgården pulled one back in the 38th minute through a penalty converted by midfielder Alice Lindqvist, giving the visitors hope going into the interval. However, Rosengård responded with renewed intensity after the break. In the 55th minute, Karolina Sörensen curled a stunning shot into the top corner from 20 yards, restoring the two-goal cushion. The scoring was completed in the 78th minute when substitute Hanna Bennison headed in a cross from the right flank.
Match overview and league context
The win kept Rosengård in contention at the top of the Damallsvenskan table, putting pressure on league leaders Hammarby and Häcken. The team’s ability to create chances from both open play and set pieces was a key factor, as was their press in midfield that disrupted Djurgården’s build‑up play.
For Djurgårdens, the defeat was a setback in their fight to climb away from the mid‑table zone. Head coach Pablo Piñones‑Arce will be concerned about defensive lapses, particularly on set pieces, as his side conceded two goals from such situations.
Key performances
- Mia Persson – Scored one goal and assisted another, constantly stretching the Djurgården backline with her pace.
- Karolina Sörensen – Her stunning strike was the moment of the match, and her overall movement caused problems throughout.
- Alice Lindqvist – The only bright spark for Djurgården, scoring the penalty and working hard in midfield.
With this result, FC Rosengård Women demonstrated their credentials as genuine title challengers in the 2026 Damallsvenskan season.
