Sønderjyske defeated Vejle Boldklub 3-2 in the final round of the Superliga, a match that lacked the tension of a relegation battle due to Vejle’s already secured position for the next season. The game, played in Nørreskoven on Saturday, saw Sønderjyske overturn a 1-0 deficit into a victory.

The match had a relaxed, end-of-season atmosphere, particularly because Vejle had successfully secured their place in the Superliga earlier in the spring season. The first half was uneventful with limited offensive opportunities for both teams.

The second half saw a flurry of goals. Vejle’s Anders K. Jacobsen opened the scoring after 55 minutes, converting a chance to make it 1-0. However, Sønderjyske responded with three goals in quick succession. Mohamed Cherif equalized with a long-range shot in the 63rd minute, followed by Gidoen Duru’s goal three minutes later, capitalizing on a defensive error by Vejle. Albert Rrahmani, an 18-year-old substitute, extended Sønderjyske’s lead to 3-1 in the 83rd minute.

Vejle’s German Onugkha, who had been a key player in their survival campaign, was substituted shortly after hitting the post early in the second half. Onugkha received a standing ovation from the stadium and hugs from his teammates, acknowledging his contribution to the team’s success this season. Musa Juwara scored a late goal for Vejle, reducing the deficit to 3-2 and providing some cheer for the home fans.
