Kusk at the double for Lions
FC Copenhagen marked their return from the international break with a 3-1 home win over Hobro.
Striker Federico Santander headed the Lions in front from a corner on the half-hour mark, before Kasper Kusk doubled the lead after the break.
Kusk bagged his second with 22 minutes remaining by drilling home a rebound, before Mayron George pulled one back for the visitors.
The result leaves FCK three points off Alka Superliga leaders FC Midtjylland, with a trip to SønderjyskE scheduled for next Sunday.
