Coach Johansen decided to bench his star players for the Europa League return leg fixture against the Crusaders Football Club the following Wednesday. Zachary Bemba, Nicki Nielsen, Mikael Dorsin, Tobias Mikkelsen, Tore Reginiussen, and Borek Dockal watched the game from the sidelines. But, the Troll Kids still managed to put up an outstanding defense-minded performance to beat Crusaders 1:0 despite the absence of most of their regular first-team players. Peter Ankersen, a right-back usually on the bench, scored the only goal for the Troll Kids, sending them into the next stage of the Europa League qualifying round.
