Match report

FC Midtjylland beat FC Copenhagen 2-1 at MCH Arena after Friday Etim and Denil Castillo scored either side of a second-half equaliser. Mohamed Elyounoussi’s penalty levelled it after the break, but Midtjylland went back in front and held on.

FC Copenhagen were awarded a penalty after a VAR check on Thomas Delaney in the 49th minute, and Elyounoussi converted to make it 1-1. Midtjylland answered in the 62nd minute when Castillo scored from Etim’s assist to restore the lead at 2-1. Delaney was booked on 64 minutes before Copenhagen made two changes on 74 minutes, including Delaney coming off for Thapelo Maseko, and Midtjylland made two changes on 78 minutes.
