GIF Sundsvall edged a hard‑fought contest against Landskrona BoIS at NP3 Arena, winning 2–1 to climb the Superettan ladder. The home side showed character to come from behind and secure three precious points in front of their supporters.
Landskrona Take Early Lead
Landskrona started brightly and broke the deadlock in the 14th minute. A swift move down the right flank ended with Melker Hallberg crossing for Rasmus Jönsson, who volleyed past the Sundsvall goalkeeper. The visitors then sat back and looked to protect their advantage, but Sundsvall grew into the game as the half progressed.
Sundsvall’s Second‑Half Response
Manager Joel Cedergren made tactical adjustments at the break, pushing his full‑backs higher. The equaliser came in the 55th minute when Pontus Engblom rose highest to head home a corner. The momentum swung decisively, and Sundsvall completed the turnaround in the 72nd minute: a long‑range effort from Lukas Liljenberg took a deflection and looped over the stranded Landskrona keeper.

What It Means
Sunderland’s victory lifts them into the upper half of the Superettan table, while Landskrona BoIS drop into the relegation zone. The game highlighted Sundsvall’s resilience; they are now unbeaten in three matches and building valuable momentum. Landskrona, despite a promising start, must address their tendency to fade after taking the lead.
