Rosenborg and Hammarby played out a goalless 0-0 draw in the first leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League qualifier on August 8, 2025. The match at the Lerkendal Stadion was a cagey, tactical affair with few clear chances for either side. Both teams were cautious, knowing the importance of avoiding a defeat in the first leg. Rosenborg had the better of the possession but struggled to break down a well-drilled Hammarby defense. The Swedish visitors had a couple of opportunities on the counter-attack but failed to test the Rosenborg goalkeeper seriously. The result sets up a winner-takes-all second leg in Stockholm, where a draw with goals or any victory will be enough for one team to progress.
