FC Midtjylland claimed a 2-0 win at AGF in the Superliga, despite seeing less of the ball. The visitors were more clinical, while AGF's 58% possession and 18 shots produced only three efforts on target.
Friday Etim put Midtjylland ahead on 11 minutes, converting after Philip Billing's assist. Denil Castillo doubled the lead on 56 minutes with Etim turning provider, and AGF could not find a way back into the match.

Midtjylland also held a slight edge in expected goals, 1.39 to 1.08, which told the story of a composed away performance.
