Squad

A one-man rearguard from Rody de Boer

There were 9 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market

Diego Sekulić asks to leave Randers

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

André Escobar says Randers went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

Tempers go at Randers

Wessel Dammers was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match

Mike Themsen’s goal not enough for Randers

Mike Themsen scored, and precious little else went right: 2‑3 to FC Nordsjaelland, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Wessel Dammers

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

One of those days for Mike Themsen

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.73, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings

Yira Sor in the eights

A performance of 8.38 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings

Léider Berrío runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 12. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

FC Nordsjaelland come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Randers did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad

Nikolas Dyhr signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Nikolas Dyhr and Randers agree another 4 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Randers

Wessel Dammers was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Business is business: Ernest Agyiri goes

Brondby paid $350.0K and Randers took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Lucio Garberi

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

Randers count the cost of losing Niklas Nielsen

15 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Player ratings

Sean Klaiber shuts the door

Defensive actions: 32, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Squad

Michael Gregoritsch signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Michael Gregoritsch and Brondby agree another 2 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Brondby

Luis Binks was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings

Nicolai Vallys runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Eyes on Paulo Filho again

The phone has started ringing about Paulo Filho again, and this time the name on the line is Hobro. Brondby are listening politely and promising nothing.

Match

Brondby see off SonderjyskE

Three points for Brondby, 1‑0 the final word against SonderjyskE in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Player ratings

Emilio Aristizábal in the eights

A performance of 8.39 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Player ratings

Luis Binks in the eights

A performance of 8.09 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Filip Bundgaard

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
