Sports Calendar: Hurra!!! Cup Final day is here

As tradition dictates, the Danish Cup Final is once again being held on Ascension Day on May 5. And this year, either FC Copenhagen or AGF Aarhus will ascend to be champions.

FCK reached their third consecutive Danish cup final after winning at rivals Brøndby 1-0 in the second leg of their semi-final last week, while AGF disposed of Jutland rivals AaB Aalborg to secure their first cup final appearance since 1996.

Top records

Interestingly, AGF has the most Danish Cup triumphs in history, with nine from eleven final appearances, while FCK is second with six from ten.

With over 200 buses coming in from Jutland and a boatload of Aarhus natives living in Copenhagen, the match is sure to be sold out.

Hot tickets

Tickets will therefore will be difficult to obtain, unless you are a season ticket holder or have some solid connections at work and can get hold of some sponsor tickets.

The game kicks off at 5pm at Parken in Copenhagen. (CW)
