But after 29 minutes, the visitors were reduced to ten men when [a href="https://www.flashscore.ca/player/myhra-viljar/bsW4WlXB/"]Viljar Myhra[/a] clumsily brought down Norwegian compatriot Martin Sjolstad.[/p][p]The home side, who celebrated the 20th anniversary of their first cup triumph with special shirts and tributes from the players from the 1-0 victory over Esbjerg in 2006, at first did not use the advantage particularly well, but from the start of the second half, they still managed to restore parity through a header from Nikolas Dyhr.[/p][p]Randers' Thibault Klidje turned the game on its head a few moments later when he converted a deep ball from Elies Mahmoud, but the joy was short-lived. Seven minutes later, Leeroy Osuwu was the first to get on the ball after Arp's elegant cross and brought OB's ten men back on level terms, which was also the final result.[/p]
