Yesterday our club Malmö FF becane Swedish football champions for the 22nd time. We needed a draw in the last round at home to win the title and in front of a full statsdium we got the point needed.
I and my son were where at the stadium celebrating with the team on the pitch after the game. A wonderful day.
This year we have both won the the championship and qualified for Champions League group rounds.
It was the second season in a row we won the Swedish championship and we have won the title six times in the last nine years. We are the champions!

Travelers at Milan’s main train station will this week be able to take a break among reproductions of murals by elusive street artist Banksy.
“The Word of Banksy — The Immersive Experience” opens Friday in the Mosaics Gallery, on the rail level of Milan’s monumental Central Station.
It features reproductions of some of Banksy’s best-known pieces, such as “Nola,” created in 2008 out of sympathy with the people of hurricane-battered New Orleans.
Banksy’s street art has been recreated by young European artists and installed against backgrounds mimicking their original street setting.
“When it was a brick wall, we made a brick wall, when it is a cement wall we made a cement wall, when they are dirty from time and pollution we made them dirty with special effects,” the show’s curator, Manu De Ros, said during a preview Thursday.
New works reproduced include “Aachoo!!,” depicting a mask-less woman sneezing and knocking her dentures off, and “Steve Jobs,” which Banksy painted on a wall at the entrance to the Calais encampment of migrants hoping to reach England.
The show is a follow-up to an earlier Milan exhibition that later traveled to Paris, Barcelona, Prague, Brussels and Dubai. It is open through Feb. 27.
The exhibition is unauthorized, but the curator notes it’s also been unchallenged so far.
“He doesn’t stop them from happening, which pushes us to think that he could be happy with the work we have done,” De Ros said. “He may also appreciate the fact that we send out the messages he wishes to send out.”

Residents of Israel’s seaside metropolis, Tel Aviv, have for years complained of how expensive it is, with living costs taking a chunk out of their paychecks.
A new report backs them up. Tel Aviv is the world’s most expensive city to live in, according to the Economist Intelligence Unit, a research group linked to the Economist magazine.
The city, previously ranked fifth on the list, has now surpassed other pricy places such as Paris and Singapore, which were tied for second place. Hong Kong and Zurich, Switzerland, rounded out the top five. New York was ranked sixth and Los Angeles ninth.
