AGF let a two-goal lead slip in Horsens on Sunday, settling for a 2-2 draw after a frantic finish in the 3F Superliga.
Match Overview and Key Moments
The derby returned to the top flight after several years away, with around 1,600 AGF supporters filling the away section at Hybel Arena. AC Horsens started brighter, creating the first efforts on goal and a series of early corners. AGF grew into the game as the half wore on, threatening from set pieces and wide deliveries. Mikael Anderson went close twice before the break, and Frederik Emmery forced a save, but it remained scoreless at halftime.
AGF kept the momentum after the restart. Chances were limited for both sides in open play, but AGF were the more proactive team, and after an hour they had produced more attempts than the hosts. The pressure finally told in the 58th minute when Magnus Knudsen steered in a low strike from the edge of the area for 1-0. Ten minutes later, substitute Callum McCowatt made it 2-0 with his first touch, finishing after a long kick from goalkeeper Mads Hedenstad.
Horsens pushed high in the closing stages, sending in a wave of crosses. Jacob Bonde pulled one back in the 89th minute to set up a tense finish. Deep into stoppage time, Ivan Milicevic converted from a free kick situation to level at 2-2. The equalizer stood after a check for offside.
The match ended 2-2, leaving AGF still searching for their first league win of the season. The league now pauses for the international break; AGF are next scheduled to face Sønderjyske at home on 12 October.
