Augustinsson sends FCK through to Cup semis

FC Copenhagen progressed to the DBU Cup semi-finals with a 2-1 win over AGF in Telia Parken.

Andrija Pavlovic handed the Lions the lead minutes before half time with an improvised finish from Ludwig Augustinsson’s centre.

Martin Spelmann hit back for the visitors three minutes after the break.

But provider Augustinsson turned goalscorer with eight minutes left as he rounded off a wonderful passing move to squeeze home his winner from a tight angle.

The win sees FCK progress to the semi-finals where they will meet either FC Midtjylland, Danish First Division side Vendsyssel FF or the winners of Randers and Brøndby.
