Estonian football club FC Flora has been eliminated from the Europa Conference League following a decisive 0-4 defeat against Andorra's Inter Club d'Escaldes in the second leg of their third qualifying round match. The aggregate scoreline of 0-6 sealed Flora's exit from the European competition.

The home loss at Flora's ground compounded the disappointment from the first leg, where the team had already succumbed to a 0-2 deficit. This result presented a challenge that no Estonian club had previously overcome in European competitions: advancing after losing the initial away match by two or more goals.

The team's performance in the return leg was unable to overturn the deficit, ultimately leading to their elimination. The defeat marks the end of FC Flora's European journey for the current season, concluding their aspirations in the Europa Conference League.
