Odense BK threw away the form book to beat favourites FC København and win the Danish Cup.

Double salvo
Odense shocked title-chasing København with two goals in the first 12 minutes from Soren Berg and Dennis Siim. A misunderstanding between goalkeeper Magnus Kihlstedt and defender Martin Albrechtsen allowed Berg to open the scoring before Siim doubled the lead with a spectacular volley.

Lonstrup makes breakthrough
Mid-table OB then retreated into defensive mode and it took København 83 minutes to break through courtesy of Christian Lonstrup's header from a Todi Jonsson cross. Lonstrup also hit the woodwork with a free-kick but could not save his team's hopes of a league and cup double.
