Timrå took a 3-2 overtime win over Djurgården after the game’s two-goal opening advantage was gradually erased across the next two periods. The SHL matchup at Timrå’s home venue was tied after regulation, with the first-period 2-0 lead giving way to a 2-2 score before overtime settled the result.
How the Game Played Out
The first period established the early separation: Timrå scored twice, while Djurgården did not score. That left Timrå ahead 2-0 at the first intermission and put the visitors in a position where the next period’s response would matter to the shape of the game. At that point, the period breakdown had given the home side a clear advantage on the scoreboard, though the remaining forty minutes would change the equation.
Djurgården answered in the second period, scoring the only goal of that frame. The 0-1 period split cut Timrå’s advantage from two goals to one, making the score 2-1 after two periods. The middle frame therefore shifted the match from an early Timrå cushion into a closer contest, with Djurgården’s goal bringing the sides nearer without leveling the game before the second intermission.
The third period continued that change in direction. Djurgården scored again, and with the period ending 0-1, the teams were tied 2-2 at the end of regulation. Neither side had separated itself over the final frame, so the game moved beyond the scheduled three periods. Timrå then scored the only overtime goal, recorded as a 1-0 period, to complete the 3-2 result. The sequence in the scoreline is straightforward: Timrå built the lead, Djurgården drew even through one goal in each of the next two periods, and overtime produced the deciding difference.
That progression makes the first-period lead and the eventual finish equally central to the result. Timrå’s opening two goals were enough to keep the team in front through the second period, but not to close the game in regulation. Djurgården’s second-period and third-period goals brought the score back level, extending the contest; Timrå’s overtime goal then ended it. The final margin was one, and the winning period was overtime.
What the Result Means
For Timrå, the confirmed result is a home-venue win after a game that moved from a 2-0 lead to a tie and required extra time. The team came away with the final goal of the night and the 3-2 decision. For Djurgården, the period-by-period scoring shows a response after the opening deficit: one goal in the second, another in the third, and a tied score at the end of regulation. The comeback brought the game to overtime, but Timrå finished ahead.
The standings impact and either club’s wider season trajectory are not established by this match score alone, so the immediate significance is the result itself: Timrå won, Djurgården pushed the game past regulation, and the deciding goal came in overtime. The next SHL result for each side will add the next piece of context to this one.
