In 2020, Gävledomaren debuted in the first. And two years later, in 2022, he was named referee of the year in that series.
In that vein, he also became a regular in the refereeing team of the super league.
But now the next step in the career awaits – the Allsvenskan.
The first stop will be last night’s home arena. Last-placed IFK Norrköping faces twelfth-placed Halmstad BK.
Whether Erik Mattsson behaves gallantly or not, there may be one or two bus whistles during the match – if Norrköping’s craze in the Allsvenskan table continues.
