Brondby came with intentions to close the gap to the top in Superliga, but it ended with a humiliating loss of 1-4 to FC Nordsjaelland. After only getting one point in the last three rounds, FC Nordsjaelland got a great experience, as Monday's home game against Brondby was won 4-1. It happened on the basis of a crazy first half, where Brondby came early on, but then received four goals within 16 minutes. From the 18th to the 34th minute, everything went FCN's way. Brondby's wingback Sebastian Sebulonsen mistimed his first touch in the field, but on the sideline, he still got control of the ball, which he chipped to the far post, where Yuito Suzuki headed the leading goal in. But FCN quickly equalized, as Marcus Ingvartsen got a pass in depth and completely fooled goalkeeper Patrick Pentz with an early shot. Three minutes later, Jeppe Tverskov was again the assist maker, as he extended a corner kick, which the 18-year-old Norwegian Sindre Walle Egeli blasted in with a volley. Next time it would take four minutes before the next goal, as FCN got a free kick, which Swedish Benjamin Nygren sent in via the underside of the crossbar from about 20 meters. The fourth FCN goal within 16 minutes was pure tiki-taka with Brondby as a statistic, as Tverskov was the architect and made his third assist by finding Mario Dorgeles open in front of the box. The second half was not as spectacular, but FCN let Brondby take the initiative and defended well. Brondby created almost nothing despite the large ball possession, and when the team finally came to shots, there was no precision. In fact, FCN was closer to scoring a counter goal to 5-1 than Brondby was to reducing the score.
