GAIS secured an important victory in the Superettan by defeating Östersund 2-1 at Gamla Ullevi. Östersund took the lead after 25 minutes with a header from Jakob Hedenquist, while GAIS had several chances on goal, but Östersund's goalkeeper stood in their way.

Östersund received two yellow cards and a red card for Assiedou Yannick Armel Adjoumani in the second half, which made it difficult for them to withstand GAIS.

GAIS capitalized on the numerical advantage and equalized with an own goal from Hedenquist in the 71st minute. They continued to apply pressure and were rewarded when Aly Keita inadvertently headed a GAIS corner into his own net in the 84th minute.

Östersund desperately tried to equalize, but GAIS held firm and took all three points. With the victory, GAIS maintained their second place in the standings, while Östersund dropped points and remained in sixth place.
