IFK Göteborg had a near-miss season, losing a decisive match against AIK, where a win would have clinched the title. In spite of Thomas Olsson giving Blåvitt the lead, goals from Antônio Flávio and Daniel Tjernström saw the grip slip out of IFK's hands. Adding to the misery, AIK also won the cup final clash between the sides.
Most notable in the season was the success of Tobias Hysén, scoring 18 goals in the league, the highest number for the club for more than ten years.
