Kalmar FF dominated in the U19 match against Västerås SK

Kalmar FF delivered a convincing 5–1 victory on the road against Västerås SK in the P19 Allsvenskan on Friday, July 5 2026. Alexander Nordlund scored two of the five goals, showing why he is one of the club’s most promising attackers.

What happened on the pitch?

The game started with a high press from Kalmar FF. In the 12th minute Nordlund received the ball in the box and fired in the first goal. Västerås answered with a lone shot, but Kalmar kept the pressure on. By halftime it was 2–0 after a second Nordlund strike, a clinical finish that cemented his impact. In the second half Kalmar increased the tempo and added three goals in quick succession, including a beautiful free‑kick by midfielder Johan Svensson. Västerås reduced the deficit to 5–1 in the 78th minute, but the match was already decided.

Why is the win important for Kalmar FF?

Beyond the points, the result highlights the depth of the club’s youth academy. Nordlund, who has trained with the senior squad, now proves he can deliver under pressure. The strong offense also sends a positive signal ahead of the upcoming fixture against Hammarby FF (away, July 12 2026) where Kalmar FF sit second in Superettan with 64 points, 18 wins, 10 draws and 2 losses from 30 games. The recent form is LWWWW, meaning the team has won its last four matches.

What does the result mean for the future?

The U19 side now boasts a +31 goal difference this season (52 scored, 21 conceded). This gives manager Anders Larsson the chance to continue developing players in an attacking style that already yields results. With Kalmar FF sitting 11 points behind league leaders Mjällby AIF in the title race, every point in the senior league becomes even more valuable.

What are the next steps?

After Friday’s win, Kalmar FF turns its focus to the upcoming away game against Hammarby FF. The coach plans to give Nordlund more minutes with the senior team, while the rest of the U19 squad fine‑tunes their tactical details. For supporters, it will be exciting to watch the young talent develop and see if they can help the senior side reach the top of Superettan.
