The match between IFK Göteborg and Malmö FF was abandoned in the 77th minute, at 0–0, after a firecracker was being thrown towards Malmö FF player and former IFK Göteborg player Tobias Sana. The assistant referee Mathias Klasenius was near the accident as well. The referee Jonas Eriksson ordered all players and club staff of the pitch and adjoining areas as the police carried the attacker off the pitch and into custody. After a 34 minute wait the match delegate Pelle Höög announced that the referee had taken the decision to not resume the match that day.^[38] On 4 May, the Disciplinary Committee of the Swedish Football Association reached a decision on the outcome of the game. Malmö FF were awarded the game 3–0.^[39]
