Match Report

FC Copenhagen secured a 2–1 victory over Polessya in their UEFA Europa Conference League second qualifying round first leg, with the hosts dominant in possession but made to work harder than the scoreline might suggest. Mohamed Elyounoussi converted a penalty on 27 minutes to give Copenhagen a deserved half-time lead, with Copenhagen controlling 70% of the ball and registering 23 shots across the 90 minutes.

The tie shifted decisively at the start of the second half when Polessya's Junnosuke Suzuki was shown a red card on 46 minutes, leaving the visitors to defend with ten men. Robert capitalised on that numerical advantage, doubling Copenhagen's lead on 61 minutes, and the match appeared to be heading toward a comfortable conclusion. Our pre-match AI model had rated a Copenhagen win as the most likely outcome at 52%, a call that proved correct.

However, Polessya showed resilience in the closing stages, with Mykola Haiduchyk pulling a goal back deep into stoppage time to make it 2–1. That late strike gives the Ukrainian side a foothold ahead of the second leg, ensuring the tie remains alive.
