Nordsjaelland looked set for defeat in Sunday’s 11th-round encounter at Lyngby Stadium after falling three goals behind, but three goals in six minutes transformed the contest and earned the visitors a valuable point.

Adel, who began the match on the bench, was introduced in the 62nd minute with his team trailing 3-0.

However, Niklas Rokiar missed the spot-kick, denying Nordsjaelland the chance to snatch victory after their impressive recovery.

The result meant the Danish side had to settle for a draw despite their late surge.
