On October 29, in the 29th round of the Swedish Allsvenskan, Malmö defeated Göteborg 2-1, securing the title two rounds ahead of schedule. This is Malmö’s 24th Swedish league championship.
According to Swedish media Aftonbladet, Erling Haaland, who was nominated for the Ballon d’Or, chose not to attend the award ceremony in France after learning he would not win the prize. Instead, he traveled to Sweden’s Eleda Stadium to watch Malmö’s crucial match for the championship.
It is reported that when Haaland and his father appeared in the VIP stand, they were immediately spotted by photographers. Haaland was wearing a Malmö jersey with the name and number of his Norwegian compatriot Botteghim on the back.
Upon learning of Haaland’s arrival, Hugo Böling, Malmö’s 21-year-old midfielder, said, “Botteghim has been saying for weeks that Haaland would come. We were a bit nervous in the first half, but things improved later.”
