Emmanuel Dennis scored in stoppage time to secure a 1-0 win for Brøndby against Viborg FF at the Energi Viborg Arena on Wednesday. The Nigerian striker, who joined the Danish Superliga side in January, came on as a substitute in the 80th minute, replacing Mads Frokjaer-Jensen. His goal in the first minute of added time proved to be the difference, earning Brøndby all three points. It marked his first goal for the club since his arrival.
Dennis dedicated the moment to the Brøndby supporters, expressing gratitude for their continued backing. "I'm feeling fantastic. We got three points and it was my first goal for the club. It really means a lot to me," he said on the club's official website. "The fans mean a lot to us and to me. They have been good to me since my first day, and even if we haven't played well, they always support us." He revealed he was dealing with thigh discomfort during the match but chose to play through the pain.
The victory lifted Brøndby to fourth place in the Championship Playoffs with 41 points from 28 matches. They sit four points behind Nordsjaelland, who currently hold the final UEFA Champions League qualifying spot.
