Both teams created more than they did in the first half, but they struggeled to score. 15 minutes from the end the ball fell to the feets og AGF striker Patrick Mortensen just three meter from the goal line, but he did not manage to hit the ball.

In the 86.minute Mustafa Amini came close to win it for AGF, but his shot from outside the box hit the post. But Amini should get his goal, in injury time he hit the ball well, again from outside the box, and the shot found its way to the back of the net. A great way to win The Trophy.
