Dulee Johnson's AIK Solna took a giant step toward securing the Swedish premiership title on Sunday

They did so with a 1-0 win over relegated-bound BK Hacken in Stockholm.

AIK now leads with 36 points with eight rounds remaining. Second placed Elfsborg has 33 points. The narrow scoreline told a different story because the match was entirely dominated by Dulee and his teammates.

Statisticians recorded a 65-35-ball possession percentage for AIK.As usual Dulee was a commending presence in AIK middle directing the flow of play. Named the premiership's best player in August the Liberian international was on top of his game making the defense splitting passes that have become his trademark.

Hacken, Dulee's former club, need to up its performance or the club, which features Liberian internationals Dioh Williams and Jimmy Dixon, could be playing in the lower division next season.

Dixon did not feature in Sunday's match as he was suspended while Williams played the last 15 minutes
