GAIS saw off Brommapojkarna 4-0 on Sunday evening in the Allsvenskan's nineteenth round at Gamla Ullevi. The hosts took all three points comfortably, moving to 21 points from 19 matches while Brommapojkarna remain on 24 points after their own nineteenth game.
The opening goal came in the twenty-second minute when R. Niklasson found the net, and the visitors had already drawn a yellow card from J. Simpson by then. Two minutes later R. Thorkelsson doubled the advantage, and W. Odefalk collected a booking for the hosts shortly after.
GAIS pressed forward again in the second half. S. Salter added a third in the sixty-seventh minute, and substitute M. Andersson sealed the victory with a fourth in the seventy-seventh. Salter was then replaced in the seventy-second, before Andersson's goal.
The statistics tell the story of a match where GAIS controlled proceedings. They held 55 per cent possession and registered nine shots on target compared to Brommapojkarna's single attempt on goal. The visitors managed only one shot on target from thirteen attempts, while GAIS created one big chance and completed 430 successful passes.
Brommapojkarna made early changes, bringing on M. Derbali and K. Sever in the forty-sixth minute, but the shift did not alter the pattern of the game. GAIS introduced D. Collander in the sixty-third and then made three substitutions in quick succession in the seventy-second minute.
The result leaves GAIS in tenth place with 21 points from 19 matches, one point behind ninth-placed Brommapojkarna. The visitors had lost their previous outing 2-1 away to Falu BS, while the hosts bounced back strongly from a 0-2 defeat to Hammarby.
