See Salétro’s preparatory work in the player above.

AIK got off to a dream start in the quarter-finals away to Mjällby. Already after eleven minutes, the team had scored two goals, through Rui Modesto and Omar Faraj.

Mjällby reduced the score a few minutes before the half-time break, after a penalty goal by Alexander Johansson, but AIK was then able to take a new two-goal lead.

Ioannis Pittas pushed in his own return, after Anton Salétros was responsible for a delicious preparation on the edge.

3–1 was the final result of the match and AIK is thus ready for the semi-finals.

– We are good defensively and that should not be underestimated. Nice to leave here with a victory, says Salétros to TV4 Play.
