Djurgårdens IF completely dominated IFK Göteborg, winning 6–0 at 3 Arena in the Allsvenskan. Göteborg fans turned their backs to the pitch in protest late in the game. IFK Göteborg still awaits its first win of the season.
Djurgården took an early lead at 3 Arena. Jeppe Okkels scored 1–0 with his left foot in his first start of the season. Patric Åslund netted 2–0 after a blunder by Göteborg goalkeeper Elis Bishesari, and Kristian Lien headed in 3–0 in the 34th minute.
IFK Göteborg coach Stefan Billborn was scathing after the first half. “We are unintense, passive and cowardly with the ball. If you want to watch football, it's better to do it from the stands than the pitch”, he told TV4. Billborn declined post-match interviews.
In the second half, Åslund made it 4–0 in the 62nd minute, and substitute Joel Asoro scored twice for 6–0. “We dominated from the first minute to the 90th. We came in with completely different energy”, Asoro said. Djurgården fans taunted opponents with the chant “Blåvitt åker ur”.
Göteborg fans turned their backs to the pitch in protest late on. Tobias Heintz called it a major disappointment, while captain August Erlingmark retorted: “How do you think I feel?”. IFK Göteborg remains winless, second-bottom despite finishing fourth last year.
