Lions fall at OB with Zanka own goal

Mathias Zanka scored a late own goal to condemn FC Copenhagen to their first defeat of the Alka Superliga spring season in Odense.

The ball bounced off Zanka and into the net from an OB corner six minutes from full time after goalkeeper Stephan Andersen missed his punch.

Andreas Cornelius had the best of FCK’s chances - heading wide a Ludwig Augustinsson cross - before Nicolai Jørgensen also nodded over the bar.

The defeat leaves FCK second in the Superliga, nine points behind FC Midtjylland as attention now turns to a DBU Cup quarterfinal clash with Randers.
