WHAT HAPPENED? The Hammarby goalkeeper was handed a routine back-pass, from which he took a touch and looked to play out from pressure from Benie Traore. Unfortunately, his eyes deceived him and he mistook the penalty spot for the ball - which was actually rolling towards his goal behind him. Traore steamed in and had a simple tap in to put Hacken 1-0 up.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: A saving grace for Dovin is that the Swedish league season is very much still in its infancy, with this just Hammarby and Hacken's second game of the season. A win for either side would see them top, but a first-half hat-trick from Traore has Hacken 3-0 up in the early season encounter.
