Brøndby IF 0-2 AGF result, stats and report

Andreas Cornelius came off the bench to head home the only goal of a tight Copenhagen derby, as FC København's superior cutting edge proved the difference over a Brøndby side that competed hard but created nothing of note.

Brøndby IF put four past FC Midtjylland on Monday evening, with Stanley Iheanacho scoring twice in a commanding away performance that exposed the home side's defensive frailties. FC Midtjylland showed fight but their discipline and shape crumbled under sustained visiting pressure.

Randers FC put on a commanding display at Brøndby, scoring three times after the break to claim a deserved 3-0 victory. Brøndby had plenty of possession going against them and could not live with Randers when it mattered.

FC Midtjylland came to Aarhus and did the basics better than AGF. Two goals, two shots on target that counted, and a clean sheet. That is what winning looks like.

AGF have not won in five Danish Superliga matches and cannot keep a clean sheet. Sønderjyske arrive with four major absentees and one win in their last ten. Something has to give on Monday night in Aarhus.

Brøndby IF host Lyngby Boldklub on Sunday needing a response after back-to-back Danish Superliga defeats. Lyngby arrive with problems of their own, but they have shown enough to make this uncomfortable.

Brøndby IF sit top of the Danish Superliga after five games but FC København arrive at Brøndby Stadion carrying the weight of last season's title and some sharp recent form. This one has tactical consequences far beyond the three points.
