Only two matches were played tonight in Sweden and both started one hour earlier than usual to allow for Sweden’s participation in football EURO 2020 at 21:00hrs. There will also two matches on Thursday 1 July as the government regulations change to allow up to 3000 people to watch the games live for the first time since 2019.

Masarna 41:49 Lejonen
#MASLEJ
Antonio Lindbäck was not named in the Masarna squad for the match and the Avesta team also had to use Rider’s Replacement for Patrick Hansen. Meanwhile, Czestochowa’s U21 rider, Jakub Miskowiak, raced his first match in Sweden for Lejonen.
However, from Heat 5, where Oliver Berntzon and Miskowiak (9+1) combined for Lejonen’s first 1:5 of the match, it looked like Masarna were going to come away from the match defeated again.
The final score was 41:49 to Lejonen and it was Berntzon who top scored for the visitors with 10+1, whilst English speakers, Rohan Tungate (9+1) and Robert Lambert (8) also made a solid contribution.
The score looked much better for Avesta because the Pawlicki brothers took two 5:1s Heats 11 and 15. They were the team’s top scores with Przemslaw (pictured) scoring 14+2 and Piotr, 16+1.

Västervik 50:40 Rospiggarna
#WMSKROS
Västervik’s three Ekstraliga riders showed their skills, whilst Rospiggarna, with just two riders from the Ekstraliga, never managed to get ahead of the hosts.
The difference between the teams can be seen in that Rospiggarna’s Patryk Dudek scored just 6+2, whilst Torun’s Adrian Miedzinski scored 8+1. By contrast, his teammate at Torun, Pawel Przedpelski scored a 15 points maximum whilst Leszno’s Jaimon Lidsey also scored a paid maximum.
Finnish rider, Timo Lahti, who races on a Swedish license for Rospiggarna, was their top scorer with 11.
