Aussies Abroad: Mabil helps inspire another Midtjylland victory

Awer Mabil tallied another assist to help FC Midtjylland secure a come from behind over Esbjerg in the Danish Superliga earlier this morning.

The Caltex Socceroos star made his ninth league start as the Wolves posted a 2-1 victory to go seven points clear ahead of reigning champions Copenhagen.

Midtjylland fell behind at the Blue Water Arena thanks to a 56th minute effort from Ukrainian forward Yuriy Yakovenko.

But they equalised within 10 minutes when Mabil's cross was finished off at the back post by Mikael Anderson for 1-1.

Mabil had inspired his side's comeback victory against Randers last week by laying on a similarly constructed goal for the Icelandic youngster.

Six minutes later, Alexander Scholz scored the winner for Midtjylland.
