FC Copenhagen bounced back from disappointing losses to Brondby and Silkeborg with a 2-1 victory over Sonderjyske in Haderslev. This timely win has restored morale within the team, especially with a crucial Champions League match against Qarabag looming in Azerbaijan.

FC Copenhagen's Brazilian winger Robert Silva was the standout performer of the day, scoring twice to lead his team to victory. The reigning champions were initially denied by their captain Viktor Claesson's missed opportunities, including a shot that hit the post after a well-executed team effort.

Robert Silva broke the deadlock in the 28th minute with a clinical finish after being put through on goal by Mohamed Elyounoussi. This decisive moment shifted the momentum in Copenhagen's favor, and Silva's second goal sealed the win for the favorites.

Sonderjyske faced challenges in the first half, compounded by an early injury to Runar Sigurgeirsson, who was replaced by Gideon Duru. This setback seemed to impact the team's momentum, allowing FC Copenhagen to maintain control of the match.

The visitors' dominance continued into the second half, and Robert Silva sealed the win with a stunning half-volley. Ten minutes into the half, the ball fell kindly at Silva's feet inside the box, and he expertly half-volleyed it into the top-right corner, doubling FC Copenhagen's lead and effectively ending Sonderjyske's hopes of a comeback.

Robert Silva had a chance to complete a hat-trick with a long-range drive, but Sonderjyske goalkeeper Marcus Bundgaard made a crucial save to deny him. The parried effort showcased Bundgaard's reflexes and denied Silva the opportunity to seal his hat-trick.

Sonderjyske managed to secure a lifeline towards the end of the match when Magnus Jensen converted a penalty. The penalty was awarded after Thomas Delaney blocked a shot on goal with his arm inside the box, allowing Sonderjyske to reduce the deficit to 2-1. Despite this late setback, FC Copenhagen held on to claim a crucial win.

With this win, FC Copenhagen currently sits atop the table with 20 points from ten matches. However, AGF also boasts 20 points but has a game in hand, which could see them reclaim the top spot if they secure a win against FC Nordsjaelland on Sunday.
