Lions Lose On Road, Cough Up League Lead

At Herning, Denmark:


Danny Olsen scored the only goal of the match in the 66th minute on Sunday as FC Midtjylland defeated visiting FC Copenhagen 1-0 in Danish Super League action.  The defeat, combined with FC Nordsjaelland's 1-0 road win over Brondby, pushed the Wild Tigers past the Lions to the top of the league standings with one game remaining.  Nordsjaelland will host Horsens  on Wednesday while Copenhagen will play host to Silkeborg on that same day.  The first-place finishers will automatically advance to the group stage of next season's Champions League while the second-placers will enter Champions League qualifying in the third round.
