Player ratings

Jordan Larsson runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 28. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Tempers go at FC Midtjylland

Victor Bak 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.

Loan watch

Issa Niaré wants to come home

“I did not go to Aalborg to sit and watch. I want to come back to FC Midtjylland and fight for my place.” 5 appearances in 16 matches say the rest.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Mikael Uhre

“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.

Match

FC Midtjylland and FC Copenhagen take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Player ratings

A day to forget for Dani Silva

Marked 4.10, and generously at that. Nothing came off, and by the end the crowd had stopped expecting it to.

Market

The Aral Şimşir question follows FC Midtjylland around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Aral Şimşir’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Squad

Dani Silva knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Dani Silva trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Squad

Linson is off the mark for FC Midtjylland

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Philip Billing

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 33 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Player ratings

Victor Bak 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

Philip Billing in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at FC Midtjylland this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Victor Bak signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Victor Bak and FC Midtjylland agree another 5 years.

Match

Mikel Gogorza sends FC Midtjylland past Suduva

It finished 3‑2, and it was Mikel Gogorza’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to FC Midtjylland.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Aral Şimşir

Marked 9.12 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Player ratings

One of those days for Mikel Gogorza

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 9.09, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Match

Mikael Uhre sends FC Midtjylland past OB

It finished 1‑0, and it was Mikael Uhre’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to FC Midtjylland.

Squad

Mikael Uhre left out for the big one

A player who expected to start watched it instead. The manager will call it a decision for the team; Mikael Uhre will call it something else in private.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Elías Rafn Ólafsson

There were 8 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.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Victor Bak

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 25 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Philip Billing

Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 24 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Aral Şimşir

Successful dribbles: 23. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Aral Şimşir in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at FC Midtjylland this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Chichi Capo gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

Cho Gue-Sung keeps on missing

Shots: 11, not one of them in. A centre forward is paid for one thing, and on this evidence he has forgotten which thing it is.

Match

No goals between FC Midtjylland and Viborg

Ninety minutes, two goalkeepers with clean gloves, and not one finish worth keeping. Viborg will be the happier side with the point.

Squad

A first senior shirt for Linson

Every debut is a small story about the future: Linson, 19 years old, off the academy pitches and into the first team. The parents in the stand will keep the programme.
