The breakthrough came just before the interval when AGF's striker latched onto a long ball, held off his marker, and slotted past the goalkeeper. The second half saw Brøndby push for an equaliser, but AGF doubled their lead in the 67th minute with a sweeping counter-attack, finished calmly from 12 yards.
