FC Copenhagen welcomed West Bromwich Albion to PARKEN on Wednesday evening for a pre-season friendly. West Brom won the tie 3-0. Watch highlights from FCKTV here...
Head coach Ariel Jacobs played almost two sides during the game, with a host of substitutions at half time. Nevertheless, FCK could simply not break through a determined West Brom defence.
However, chances did come for Copenhagen. Pape Pate Diouf fired a rocket towards goal that was just tipped over the bar, while César Santin came close after breaking through the defence.
But is was West Brom who took their chances. Steven Rein scored a wonderful free-kick in the first half, bending the ball over the wall and under the crossbar. Shane Long then scored a penalty with moments to go in the game, before Gabriel Tamas wrapped up a 3-0 win with a deflected shot.
