The goalkeeper also had to score in the last game – see more about that in the player above.
Ängelholms FF crushed division 4 north-west Skåne and went through the entire series undefeated with a crushing 78-0 goal difference. Nevertheless, they did not win the league before Ljungbyheds IF.
– It’s something very cool we did in that we didn’t concede a goal either. We have said that we should be very happy with ourselves even if we didn’t win the series, says goalkeeper Nellie Bengtsson to SVT Sport.
The matchless season has spread like wildfire on social media and has also reached beyond Sweden’s borders.
The performance spread around the world: “Very surreal”
Is this one of the sickest things you’ve been through?
– You can really say that, above all with the excitement and attention we have received. News sites have heard from Spain, France, the US and Norway, very surreal.
But keeping a clean sheet in all games and being undefeated is not always so much fun for a goalkeeper.
– Some matches were very boring, I stood and froze at times.
Ängelholm won 15 matches and played three 0-0 matches. Ljungbyhed won 16 matches, lost one and drew one, resulting in a winning margin of one point.
With second place, Ängelholms FF qualify for division 3. The first meeting with Strövelstorp/Salamis ended 1-1 and the return match away from home will be played on Sunday 27 October.
