Hammarby have missed the chance to close the gap on Allsvenskan leaders Sirius after losing at GAIS, while on Tuesday, Goteborg secured their first victory of the season thanks to a late winner against Orgryte, as the two sides completed the remaining minutes of their match that was abandoned on Monday.
