IFK Norrkoping FK set the tone quickly at Nya Parken. Fransson opened the scoring on 15'39'' with Nyman providing the assist, and the home side doubled the lead at 28'21'' when Neffati finished after Jemal's setup. Those two first-half goals left Sandvikens IF chasing the game and shaped the rest of the contest.
The second half brought more stoppages than scoring for a spell. Noel Sernelius was booked for the hosts at 55'13'', then Adam Kiani and Gustav Thorn picked up yellow cards for the visitors at 56'53'' and 58'00''. Sandvikens tried to change the flow with substitutions, first sending on Karl Fredrik Bohm for Johan Arvidsson before later introducing Mohammed Mahammed and Victor Backman.
The game was settled for good on 73'10'' when Nyman got on the scoresheet, finishing from Viktor Christiansson's assist to make it 3-0. Norrkoping then closed it out with a string of changes, including Tim Prica and Jonas Bertheussen Weber, and saw out a clean-sheet win without late drama.
