RoPS vs VIFK Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

RoPS took on VIFK in the Ykkonen of Finland on August 31. RoPS came out on top, securing a 3-2 win.

The turning point came on the 12th minute when Aleksi Pahkasalo converted the chance, tipping the balance in VIFK's favor. Aaro Tiihonen, Tomas Varhi and Tatu Lakela then scored, as Pahkasalo added another goal, making the final score 3-2.

As RoPS and VIFK square off once more, the memory of RoPS's 0-3 win in their Ykkonen match from a year ago still lingers. RoPS enter this encounter after securing a victory over EPS in Ykkonen on August 24. Their recent victory has come with a cost though, as their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have been conceding goals for ten consecutive home matches now.

VIFK, in comparison, are in a poor form, preparing for the match after two consecutive losses against OLS and PKKU, unable to secure a win in their last five games. Their backline remains a concern, conceding goals in their last five matches in a row.

This Ykkonen encounter highlights the attacking players who have stood out for RoPS and VIFK throughout the campaign, even in challenging moments. RoPS’s top finisher Simo Roiha and Tomas Varhi have played important roles in ensuring their attack, under the tactical direction of Pasi Tuutti, remains effective. Roiha leads RoPS’s scoring charts in Ykkonen this season with nine goals. Adding further support are Aapo Savolainen, Riku-Veli Niska and Juuso Polvi, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, VIFK’s attacking options have been bolstered by Aleksi Pahkasalo, the team’s top scorer, and Lubunga Etoka, both of whom have contributed crucial goals. Pahkasalo has emerged as VIFK’s leading scorer in Ykkonen this season, netting four goals. Supporting them are Steven Morrissey, Xhosa Shkelqim and Arsene Baseme, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to VIFK’s attack.
