Baidoo played a pivotal role in the midfield, contributing both offensively and defensively throughout the match.

Thanks to the resilience of the visitors, the team pulled parity through an own goal by Lars Saetra four minutes afterwards.
Later in the 40th minute, Ghanaian winger Jalal Abdullai equalised to give IF Elfsborg a 2-1 lead to take into the halftime break.
In the tough contest that ensued in the second half, in-form Michael Baidoo scored in the 86th minute to seal an exciting 3-1 win for his team.
The win thanks to the goals from the Ghanaian duo puts Elfsborg 5th on the Swedish Allsvenskan table.
