Piteå IF have confirmed their spot in the Damallsvenskan for 2027, though it took a helping hand from Hammarby to seal the deal.
Piteå's own result - a 1-1 draw against Malmö FF - left their fate hanging in the balance. They had grabbed an early lead but were pegged back just before half-time, unable to find a winner.
The crucial moment came elsewhere. Hammarby dispatched FC Rosengård 2-0 in a result that proved pivotal, mathematically guaranteeing Piteå's survival regardless of their own stalemate with Malmö.
Alexander Hellekant and Älvali Lindström were among the standout names on the day, with both delivering notable contributions in a tense encounter between Piteå and Malmö.
For Piteå, it's another season in Sweden's top flight secured - even if the celebrations had to wait for results from another ground.
