There were no winners in GrIFK's previous match, a Kakkonen home game that ended 4-4 vs KaaPo (placed 7th). GrIFK's last match (vs KaaPo) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 1-3. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw after 90 minutes thanks to a 90th minute equalizer by S. Veijola. As you can tell from the result, the match against KaaPo was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 8 goals, will the fun continue today?
It was a defeat before that one as the away game against PIF wasn't a success with a 0-3 loss.GrIFK have scored more than twice on average per away game (in the league), an impressive attacking display. They have 18 goals from 8 away matches. GrIFK have conceded 11 goals in these away matches.
