Helsinki Football Club drew 1–1 with AC Oulu in the Veikkausliiga.
Both teams are still undefeated in the series. Oulu’s performance is boosted by the fact that the team was promoted to the Veikkausliiga for this season and is currently in second place.
HJK’s Bojan Radulović gave his team a 1-0 lead at the beginning of the second period from a penalty kick, but Oulu leveled up Ashley Coffey on the finish line.
After Coffey’s penalty kick goal, HJK’s Joona Toivio was shown a red card.
HJK continues to lead the series despite the draw.
Kuopio Palloseura, which changed its head coach on Friday, immediately won when it defeated Ilves 1-0 on its home field.
KuPS said on Friday that they had fired Pasi to Tuuti and in place of the hirer Jani Honkavaara.
At the same time, the team piloted by Honkavaara took the first victory of this season. KuPS scored their winning goal in the 83rd minute of the game, when Clinton Anthony succeeded in scoring.
Thanks to their victory, KuPS rose to sixth place in the series. Ilves is fifth.
