Fremad Amager 1–2 Ishøj IF – Danish 2nd Division

Ishøj IF staged a second‑half comeback to beat Fremad Amager 2‑1 in the Danish 2nd Division on 16 May 2026. The away victory lifted Ishøj into the upper half of the table, while Fremad Amager were left to rue missed opportunities.

First‑half advantage for Fremad

The home side started with purpose and took a deserved lead in the 17th minute. A well‑directed corner was met by Fremad Amager’s centre‑back, who powered a header past the Ishøj goalkeeper. For the remainder of the first half, Fremad controlled the tempo, creating several half‑chances but failing to extend their lead. Ishøj looked disjointed and struggled to string passes together.

Ishøj’s second‑half revival

The visitors emerged for the second half with renewed intensity. They equalised in the 53rd minute when a quick break caught Fremad’s defence off guard; the Ishøj winger cut inside and fired a low shot into the far corner. Buoyed by the goal, Ishøj pushed forward and took the lead for the first time in the 71st minute. A lofted through ball split the Fremad backline, and the Ishøj striker calmly slotted home past the onrushing goalkeeper.

Late pressure

Fremad Amager threw everything forward in the final 15 minutes, but Ishøj’s defence held firm. The home side had a strong penalty appeal waved away and hit the crossbar from a free‑kick, but it was not enough to salvage a point.
