Soren Christensen scored a hat-trick as FC Nordsjaelland came from two goals down to beat AGF Aarhus 5-3 and keep the pressure on Superligaen leaders FC Copenhagen.

The visitors went two goals up thanks to Martin Jorgensen's 14th-minute penalty and Peter Graulund's 26th-minute effort. Christensen got the hosts back on level terms with goals in the 32nd and 41st minutes, but Aron Johannsson put Aarhus back in front a minute before the break.

The second half belonged to Nordsjaelland, though, as Christensen completed his treble in the 59th minute before late goals from Mikkel Beckmann and Tobias Mikkelsen earned them victory.

The win moved second-placed Nordsjaelland within three points Copenhagen, who have a game in hand.
