  [ I've been away for a while, so I haven't had access to news. These
    results are, therefore, somewhat late. Sorry 'bout that. ]

 B1909 - AGF  0-4 (0-2)
   0-1 Kent Nielsen (8)
   0-2 Claus Christiansen (25)
   Red card, Demir Cerkic, B1909 (44)
   0-3 S/oren Andersen (61)
   0-4 Stig T/ofting (83)
   [ B1909 will have to show far more class than this. Their play is
     weak, and AGF was allowed a very easy win. The game saw a comeback
     for Jan Bartram, who joins AGF after a one-year pause. Bartram
     showed a solid performance, but given the background it is hard to
     know his real strength. Stig T/ofting and a bad B1909 defense
     created the first goal. T/ofting found Kent Nielsen in the box
     with a nice pass, and Nielsen was allowed ample time to control
     the ball with the chest as score with a flat shot. The B1909
     defense continued their bad play and AGF could have scored more
     goals in the first half had not goalkeeper Henrik J/orgensen showed
     a splendid performance. Jan Bartram created the second goal with a
     quick rush to the goalline and a nice pass to Claus Christensen in
     front of goal. The final minutes of the second saw Demir Cerkic
     receive his second yellow card after a number of bad fouls. In the
     second half AGF continued to own the game without doing much for
     it. S/oren Andersen made it 3-0 with a fine shot from the edge of
     the box, and towards the end of the game Andersen rushed past
     three defenders and passed to Stig T/ofting, who easily made it
     4-0. ]

 Naestved - Lyngby  2-1 (0-0)
   Red card, Morten Wieghorst, Lyngby (45)
   1-0 Mark Strudal (57)
   2-0 Mark Strudal (75)
   2-1 Henrik J/orgensen (88)
   [ A shocker! Lyngby's Danish champions *are* weak this year, but
     still, a win against Naestved was expected. Naestved has invested in
     Mark Strudal in order to improve their scoring, and this seems to
     be a wise move. Strudal (24, formerly Vejle) needed only a single
     game to adapt to the new surroundings before starting to score.
     Strudal was a clear improvement for naestved, quick and technically
     sound, and with an ability to be where the chances are. Lyngby
     played nice in the first half but lacked efficiency against a not
     very impressive Naestved defense, and in the final minute of the
     half a rather curious incident took place. Lyngby defender Claus
     Christiansen made an obstruction against Alex Nielsen, who rightly
     received a penalty. A bit of quarrel took place (as in so often
     the case) and Alex Nielsen stepped on Morten Wieghosts toe, either
     being clumsy or intending to anger the Lyngby defender. Either
     way, Wieghorst decided literally to hit back and was promptly
     showed a red card. This naturally gave Naestved more space to
     breathe in the second half, and 12 minutes into the half Strudal
     appeared out of nowhere in the box and sent the ball past Kim
     Brodersen from a short range. The next phase saw both teams
     playing with little consequence or direction, but after some 20
     minutes Strudal dived after a pass and scored beautifully with a
     technically difficult detail, heading the ball sideways relative
     to the direction of the dive. Lyngby finally awoke put some
     pressure on the Naestved defense, but far to late, even though
     Henrik J/orgensen managed to score after a couple of Naestved
     defenders could not seems to get the ball out of the way. ]

 Frem - AaB  1-1 (1-1)
   0-1 Jan Pedersen (8)
   1-1 S/oren Thorst (44, o.g.)
   [ AaB was hard pressed but managed to keep up -- I believe they did
     pull as many passes to the opposition as Frem. AaB opened the game
     nicely with some fine counter-attacks, and 8 minutes into the game
     Jan Pedersen hammered the ball into the goal from some 30 meters
     with a beautiful first-time shot. AaB then fell back in their bad
     old habit of being satisfied with a one-goal when away. Frem had
     little to show, but S/oren Thorst decided that you have to score in
     your 250th game, and so he did. ]

 FC K/obenhavn - OB  1-1 (0-1)
   0-1 Alphonse Tchami (33)
   1-1 Lars H/ojer (71)
   Red card, Alphonse Tchami (75)
   [ The top teams clashed in great game. The game saw both teams
     playing technically excellent football at a very fast pace, with
     both teams willing to attack and trying to control events. OB
     slowly gained control of the midfield in the first half and
     started forcing FCK backwards, with Alphonse Tchami being
     constantly aggressive. FCK was still in the game, though, and S/oren
     Lyng received two bog chances but missed badly. After half an hour
     OB rolled on a beautiful attack where the ball passed quickly
     between six players, ending with a good volley into the box where
     Tchami scored with a fine header. A deserved lead for OB. FCK
     pressed to equalize and became desperate as the time ticked away,
     giving OB a number of good chances. Ivan Nielsen never managed to
     get a hold on Tchami, and Lars Elstrup should have decided the
     game 14 minutes into the second half, but Palle Pedersen saved in
     good style. Instead FCK was awarded for their efforts, Lars H/ojer
     heading the equalizer home after a good pass from Brian Kaus. A
     few minutes later Tchami was showed the red card after a situation
     where he and Kenneth Wegner where pushing around a bit and Wegner
     decided to look badly hurt. Foo! Both teams pressed on but no more
     goals came of it. OB had deserved to win with their very offensive
     3-4-3 strategy, even though FCK played a fine game. Tchami was
     decidedly the best player of the game. ]

 Silkerborg - Br/ondby  3-0 (0-0)
   1-0 Lars Melvang (65)
   2-0 Jacob Keldberg (72)
   3-0 Lars Melvang (88)
   [ Br/ondby gave a debut to Frank Pingel (formerly 1860 M"unchen),
     intending him to put some efficiency into the front line, but
     nothing came of it. The game long looked like a typical 0-0 game,
     with both teams not really having their hart in the attacks and
     being careful in the defense, but halfway through the second half
     Silkerborg decided to up the tempo. Br/ondby did not have a move to
     counter this, resulting in a near-collapse of the Br/ondby defense,
     allowing Silkeborg to score three times in the final 30 minutes.
     On the basis of their fine play in this period Silkeborg got a
     deserved win. ]
