Brøndby and Spartak Subotica met in the first qualifying round semi-finals of the UEFA Women's Champions League on 2 September 2026, and the Danish side went through with a 4:1 win. It was a result that extended their advantage over the Serbian visitors after last month's 5:0 scoreline, though the margin of success felt more comfortable this time around. By then, Brøndby had already shown they were serious about progressing further in the competition.
Mila Bischoff opened the scoring in the ninth minute, a sharp finish that gave the home crowd early momentum. Hanna Andersson doubled the lead just before the break with a well-taken goal in the 41st minute. The visitors tried to respond after the restart, but Brøndby's control never wavered. Andersson added her second in the 76th minute, and Jelena Zbiljic pulled one back for Spartak Subotica in the 81st minute.
The final goal came in stoppage time, though the scorer was not recorded in the available data. Brøndby made several changes around the hour mark, bringing on Elvira Bull Nejmann, Malin Brenn, Tilde Lindwall, and Mila Bischoff all at once in the 65th minute. Milica Andric and Iva Markovic came on earlier for the visitors, while Lilli Halttunen entered near the end for Brøndby. Milana Golubovic picked up a yellow card for Spartak Subotica in the 56th minute.
The statistics tell a straightforward story. Brøndby held 56 per cent possession and earned eight corners compared to two. They registered three shots on target against the visitors' single effort, and Spartak Subotica received one yellow card while the hosts kept a clean disciplinary record.
The victory puts Brøndby in a strong position to advance from this qualifying stage. Spartak Subotica's recent form has been inconsistent, with heavy defeats against Danish sides standing out. This result means the hosts will be confident of reaching the next round, while the Serbian side will need to regroup quickly.
