Down 0-1 at home, at the half.

If they manage a point here, that means Sundsvall is officially relegated, and Forrest Lasso and Joe Corona (and coach Brian Claurhaut) become the first Yanks Abroad relegated in the 22/23 season.

 

Degerfors scored, Gyau assist! 1-1

Degerfors scores again, 2-1!

 

Gyau second assist to Bouza --who seems to have been offside but who cares-- for the 3-1.

 

The 2nd assist:

Elyas Bouzaiene gör 3-1 för Degerfors!

Degerfors and Varberg are fighting to escape the releg playoff. Right now Degerfors has one game left, away at Malmö, which on paper should be a loss but Malmö will be playing for nothing, since they cannot make European competition but neither are at any risk of relegation.

Varberg has two games left, at home versus Malmö (which is having a bad run) and away at Sirius (a team that is playing right now, and if they keep the tie, will be safe from relegation).

Varberg has 28/-24 and Degerfors 30/-17.

Yanks Abroad Match of the Day! Joe Gyau starts against Goteborg!

So, enjoy your other pastimes until Saturday.

 

BTW Jeff Gal, the other YA with Degerfors last season, moved back to the US and is with the Fire now, playing for their second team.

 

Gyau starts again today against AIK. 1-1 so far.

 

Late yellow, but he won't mind as a 2-1 win breaks a three match losing streak.

 

Gyau starting again vs Hammarby today.

 

2-2 draw, Gyau appears to have had a good game.

Drew 1-1 at home against last place and releg candidate Varberg. Not good. Their defender scored an own goal, and their DM got a red at the end. They look like relegation candidates, just like last season.

 

Gyau starts again today against Malmo, who can go top of the table with a win. Malmo up 1-0 early.

Trailing 3-0 after the hour mark.

 

Subbed out in the 84th minute, ends 5-0.

YA Match of the Day complete. There will be no highlights.

 

The good news is Degerfors likely relegation won't count towards this record-breaking season with 13 Yanks Abroad relegated (I'm already counting Bello, sorry). The bad news is that it will count towards next tally for the 23/24 season.
