GAIS had a 1–0 lead from Gothenburg but lost the return match with 6–0. This means they are eliminated from Conference League. Last week, Matteo de Brienne was a hero for GAIS when he scored the only goal in the club's first European match in 36 years. But the return match with Nordsjælland was a dark story for the green and blacks. Already after a quarter, GAIS was down by 2–0 and a few minutes before halftime, Hjalte Boe scored the third goal for the home team. The goals continued to fall in the second half, when Nordsjælland eventually won with 6–0. This means GAIS are eliminated from the Conference League qualification, and instead they will focus on the continuation of the Allsvenskan season. Nordsjælland, who finished third in the Danish league last season, have only played one match (a draw against Horsens) this season. GAIS are currently 13th in Allsvenskan with 0 points after 2 matches, with a goal difference of -3. Their next match is at home against Malmö FF on August 16.
