“Robert is booked for a foul as the physical nature of the derby intensifies in the second half”
“Andreas Cornelius scores the only goal of the match, heading home shortly after coming on as a substitute to give FC København the lead”

Outstanding performance
FC København•GoalkeeperFC København made their extra sharpness in the final third count, converting one of five big chances while Brøndby created none despite matching them for possession and dangerous attacks. The visitors' bench proved decisive as Cornelius, on for barely seven minutes, headed home the only goal of the game in the 79th minute to settle a cagey, foul-heavy derby. Brøndby's approach was combative rather than incisive - 20 tackles and plenty of physicality but no clear-cut chances to show for it, while København's patient build-up and superior quality in the box eventually told. The win keeps København's title credentials intact and deals another blow to Brøndby's push up the table, with the hosts left to rue their inability to turn territorial parity into genuine attacking threat.
