Key moments

The first-quarter turning point came midway through the period when Alvik unleashed a 12-0 run, turning an early 8-6 deficit into a 18-8 lead. The surge was powered by transition baskets and two quick three-pointers, forcing Trelleborg to call timeout. Trelleborg responded with better energy in the second quarter, but Alvik’s ball movement consistently created open looks from beyond the arc.

In the third quarter, Trelleborg briefly threatened with an 8-0 run that trimmed the lead to 55-49. Alvik’s composure in those moments proved decisive. A 9-2 answer restored control, and early in the fourth quarter another 7-0 burst effectively ended Trelleborg’s comeback hopes.

Tactical story

Alvik’s offense was built on pace and spacing. The visitors pushed the ball after makes and misses alike, forcing Trelleborg’s defense to make quick decisions. Alvik finished with a strong advantage in fast-break points and used dribble penetration to draw help defenders before finding shooters on the perimeter. Their 12 made three-pointers were a major difference in a game where both teams scored well inside.

Trelleborg had success attacking the paint, especially in the second and fourth quarters, but turnovers and missed defensive assignments hurt them at key moments. Alvik’s bench also provided a meaningful spark, contributing 24 points and helping maintain energy when the starters rotated. Trelleborg’s late rally showed character, but the hosts could not string together enough defensive stops to make the final minutes truly tense.

Standout performers

• Oscar Holm (Alvik): 26 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds — the game’s leading scorer and primary playmaker.
• Filip Berg (Alvik): 19 points and 11 rebounds, anchoring the interior on both ends.
• Elias Nyström (Alvik): 15 points, including three timely three-pointers.
• Noah Lindström (Trelleborg): 23 points and 6 rebounds in a strong individual effort.
• Isak Dahl (Trelleborg): 16 points and 5 assists.
• Hugo Persson (Trelleborg): 12 points and 8 rebounds.

Season impact

The result gives Alvik an important road win and reinforces their playoff ambitions in Superettan Basket. Their ability to control tempo and hit perimeter shots under pressure will be a valuable asset as the season progresses. Trelleborg, meanwhile, will focus on reducing turnovers and improving transition defense after allowing too many easy baskets. The loss leaves them chasing consistency in the early standings, but their late fight suggests the team has the scoring power to respond in the coming weeks.
