— -- COPENHAGEN, May 5 - Brondby beat FC Midtjylland 3-2 to win the Danish Cup for the fifth time on Thursday and stay on course for the domestic double. Midfielder Ruben Bagger scored the winner in extra time after Midtjylland's Razak Pimpong was sent off in the 66th minute for his second yellow card. Pimpong had given his team a 2-1 lead five minutes earlier with a header from inside the penalty area. Midtjylland, who also lost the Cup final to Brondby in 2003, will play in next season's UEFA Cup if Brondby clinch the championship.
