Nigeria international Emmanuel Dennis produced a decisive late moment to hand Brøndby IF a 1-0 victory over Viborg FF in their Danish Superliga encounter at Energi Viborg Arena on Wednesday evening, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Introduced from the bench, Dennis made an immediate impact by scoring deep into stoppage time. The forward reacted quickest to a loose ball following a set-piece, calmly slotting past the goalkeeper to secure all three points for the visitors.

The strike marked his first goal for Brøndby, having previously logged 383 minutes across eight appearances without finding the net.

Speaking after the match, the former Watford FC and Nottingham Forest FC forward expressed satisfaction with both the team’s performance and his personal milestone. He emphasised the importance of the victory and described the goal as a significant moment early in his spell with the Danish side.

Dennis also acknowledged the support of the club’s fans, praising their encouragement since his arrival.

During his time in England, the 28-year-old recorded 20 goal contributions—12 goals and eight assists—in 52 Premier League appearances.

He last featured for the Nigeria national football team in 2022.
