Anam Imo helps Rosengard reclaim Swedish women's Damallsvenskan title

Anam Imo helped Rosengard to win the Swedish Women’s Damallsvenskan title for the first time since 2015 after they were held by Leandra Smeda’s Vittsjo to a 1-1 draw at home on Sunday.

After a 3-3 draw at home against Linköping delayed their title celebration last weekend, Jonas Eidevall's ladies only required a draw against their third-placed visitors to secure the diadem.

Anna Anvegard fired the hosts ahead in the 29th minute of the game but Alexandra Benediktsson struck four minutes later to help Vittsjo's Women's Champions League hopefuls avoid defeat.

The result means Rosengard are Swedish top-flight champions for a record 11th time, with a game to spare, and will see them make a return to the Uefa Women's Champions League next year.
