Orebro put in a solid defensive display thereafter marshalled by Ghanaian defender Sam Mensah but were undone in the 68th minute where they were punished by Lasse Vibe for dropping their guard.
Soren Rieks put Goteborg ahead nine minutes later in what eventually proved the winner to hand the hosts their first title of the campaign.
