FCK win first friendly of 2017

FC Copenhagen secured a 3-0 win over Halmstads BK in their first friendly of 2017.

The Lions are set to head out on their mid-season training camp in Dubai in preparation for their Europa League clashes with Ludogorets next month.

And they secured a confidence-boosting result over Swedish side Hamlstads in Telia Parken.

Bashkim Kadrii scored the opener on 40 minutes after successful closing down the away goalkeeper and then tapping into the empty net.

Youssef Toutouh then lashed home a left-footed effort after the break to double FCK’s lead and Andrija Pavlovic made it 3-0 with five minutes remaining - the striker converting Federico Santander’s centre.

Next up for Copenhagen is a friendly against Spartak Moscow in Abu Dhabi on 31 January (14:00 CET).
