Chilufya was on song on the day and  hit the post in the 50th minute and Paulinho was subsequently tackled in the box on the follow up, The referee did not hesitate and pointed to the spot. 

Júnior Brumado stepped up, making it 0-1, the fourth goal for the Brazilian striker in the qualifying stage.

The Danish side quickly made it 2-0, Edward Chilufya put the ball in front of the in-form Aral Simsir in the box, who placed Johannes Kreidl in the KuPS goal.
