The centre-half rose at the near post to glance in Ludwig Augustinsson’s corner just before the hour mark.

But Brazilian Bruninho levelled for the home side nine minutes later to earn FCN an equal share of the points.

Lions midfielder Daniel Amartey was sent of 28 minutes in for lashing out at Emiliano Marcondes, while Federico Santander missed a late opportunity to clinch victory for Ståle Solbakken’s men.

Next up for Copenhagen is a trip to FC Midtjylland on Friday, kick off 18:00 Danish time.
