Reading Time: 2min | Sun. 16.10.22. | 19:30
Ouma played full minutes while Meja was no where in the match day squad
Collins Sichenje was sent off just three minutes after coming on as AIK recorded a 2-1 win over Djurgården in a Swedish top tier league match that was marred with crowd trouble.
The former AFC Leopards midfielder was introduced in the first minute of stoppage time for the injured Sebastian Larsson but a rushed tackle three minutes later saw the referee dig into his pocket for a direct red card.
It was yet another routine full minutes for Eric Marcelo Ouma for AIK, with Henry Meja missing out on the match day squad despite having been in the traveling team.

Ouma was also cautioned just past midway through the first half for a foul but he managed to play through the rest of the match cautiously.
AIK struck first in the first half through John Guidetti after just 10 minutes, the man who spent some of his childhood days in Kenya getting set up by Mikael Lustig for the opener.
Guidetti had his second goal involvement for the day as he set up Nicolás Stefanelli at the stroke of the hour mark to see AIK lead two goals to nothing with 30 minutes left to play.
DERBYKUNGARNA AIK!

Djurgården grabbed one back in the fourth minute of stoppage time through Karl Holmberg who had come on from the bench in the 70th minute but they could not manage to get the leveler to share the spoils.
The match was halted for a couple of minutes towards the end due to crowd trouble, with both sets of fans hurling projectiles at each other prompting the referee to get the players off the field.
