Sembrant 97th-minute winner, Dahlström exit, quarterly loss

Sembrant wins it at the death

AIK's women beat Häcken 1–0 on a Linda Sembrant goal in the 97th minute Wednesday, snapping Häcken's winning streak in the Damallsvenskan. The veteran defender struck with virtually the last kick of the match. "Tough match, tough opponent but we were the better team," said Ellie Junetoft after the final whistle. (1) (2) (3)

Dahlström heads to Visby/Roma

Former AIK player John Dahlström is moving to Visby/Roma, according to reports. The 28-year-old forward, who spent time with AIK's men's side earlier in his career, makes the switch as the summer window approaches. (4)

But the overriding concern remains the men's team, with many pointing to the financial loss as further evidence of deeper problems at the club. The contrast between the women's grit and the men's slump is a recurring theme in the threads. Read the discussion
