The first half was dominated by FC Nordsjaelland, scoring three goals within the first 27 minutes. The early goals came as a result of swift and effective counter-attacks, with the first goal merely 42 seconds into the match, and the second following shortly after, at 1 minute 54 seconds. This explosive start heavily dictated the tempo of the game, putting FC Copenhagen on the back foot immediately.

FC Copenhagen's efforts to recover were visible through their increased possession and attempts in the second half, resulting in two goals. Their first goal at 54:02 was a manifestation of their sustained pressure and improved teamwork. However, despite closing the gap, they couldn't match the initial pace set by Nordsjaelland. Their attempts were frequently curtailed by offsides and some imprecise finishing - having 2 offsides compared to Nordsjaelland's 0.

The game was relatively clean with minimal fouls and each side receiving just one yellow card. FC Copenhagen received their yellow card in the second half (68:31), which seemed to momentarily disrupt their momentum. Nordsjaelland’s yellow card came later at 82:28, but by then they had adjusted to a more defensive stance to secure their lead. Both teams had equal corner kicks (3 each), implying that set-pieces did not significantly influence the outcome of the game.

Substitutions saw both teams attempting to inject fresh energy and tactical changes, but Nordsjaelland's initial burst proved crucial. The home team’s ability to strike early, combined with solid defensive discipline in the latter stages, allowed them to withstand Copenhagen's resurgence. FC Copenhagen must improve their initial defensive organization to avoid being caught out early in future matches.
