UECL: Hacken fall to a first loss in eight as Strasbourg take a 2-1 Conference League win

UECL: Hacken Suffer First Loss in Eight as Strasbourg Win 2-1

BK Hacken's seven-game unbeaten streak ended when RC Strasbourg defeated them 2-1 at Gamla Ullevi in the UEFA Conference League. Although Hacken started the match strongly, Strasbourg gradually took control.

Rafael Luis signaled Strasbourg’s intent early with a curling shot from distance. The opening goal came soon after, created by Martial Godo on the left. Despite heavy defensive pressure, Godo’s precise cross found Julio Enciso, who skillfully placed the ball into the corner midway through the first half.

Hacken pushed for an equalizer before halftime, but Strasbourg maintained comfortable possession and held their lead.

Second Half Changes and Strasbourg's Second Goal

Hacken's coach Liam Rosenior made three substitutions at the break, but Strasbourg kept their momentum. Just before the hour, Godo nearly missed a chance with a wild swing inside the six-yard box, but was luckily able to tap in his second goal on a rebound, doubling Strasbourg’s lead.

Hacken's Late Response

As the match seemed decided, Hacken fought back. A defensive error by Mike Penders allowed John Paul Dembe to intercept a hopeful long ball and score into an empty net, securing a late goal for the Swedish side.

“Despite starting brightly, the hosts found themselves increasingly on the back foot as Strasbourg started to grow into the game.”

Summary: Strasbourg ended Hacken’s unbeaten run with a 2-1 win, showing resilience and capitalizing on key moments while Hacken responded late but fell short.
