UEFA Cup - Hibs stunned by Swedes
Eurosport - Mon, 14 Jul 09:48:00 2008
Goals from Emir Bajrami and Andreas Augustsson gave Elfsborg a surprise Intertoto Cup second-round, first-leg win at Easter Road.
The Swedes currently lie second in the Allsvenskan and have lost only one match during their opening 12 league matches, and they were by far the superior side.
Goals in either half from Bajrami and Augustsson put the visitors in the driving seat ahead of the return leg in Boras next Saturday.
Mixu Paatelainen's Hibs, back in pre-season training for just a fortnight and playing their first competitive game, were lacking in match sharpness and devoid of inspiration throughout the game.
Elfsborg - well-organised in defence and physical and threatening in attack - now look strong favourites to progress to a meeting with Latvian outfit FK Riga or the Republic of Ireland's Bohemians in the battle for a UEFA Cup spot.
