Uchenna Kanu found the back of the net but Linkopings crashed out of the 2020 Swedish Women's Cup group stage following a disappointing 5-2 defeat to Hackens on Saturday.
Having emerged the heroine in a 1-0 win over Vaxjo, the 23-year-old was given her fourth starting appearance in the rescheduled national tournament but her effort was not enough to save the day.
With a win needed to progress to the semi-final, Linkopings made a poor start to the encounter when Julia Olme opened the scoring for the hosts just three minutes into the tie at Bravida Arena.
