Nygaard returned to the squad soon after and was in the starting line against AGF. Nygaard scored his first goal in this match. He scored two goals and the game ended 4–1.
Nygaard continued what was by his standards the best form of his career, scoring two goals in the same match. This time it was on 4 May against Esbjerg fB. However Randers FC failed to win the match and the game ended 3–2 to Esbjerg. Nygaard scored again on 7 May against FC Midtjylland. He scored from 25 yards with a well placed kick at the right side of the goal. Marc Nygaard had now scored in three successive matches. RFC however failed to maintain the lead and lost the match 2–1.
Nygaard ended his first campaign with Randers FC in great style. Randers met Brøndby IF in their final game of the season. After numerous chances, Nygaard succeeded in getting a penalty for his site. Nygaard himself took the penalty and scored the first goal. Nygaards team mate Søren Berg scored the final goal and Randers won the game 2–1. Nygaard ended his first campaign at Randers with nine league appearances and six goals.
Following the new campaign Nygaard found himself side lined in the first match against AGF due to yellow cards from the previous season. However Nygaard returned in the next match against FC Copenhagen. He scored his first goal in the 2008–09 season against FC Nordsjælland in the final minutes. The game ended 1–1. Nygaard scored the equalizer against Esbjerg on penalty the game ended 1–1. After the goal Nygaard was forced to leave the field due to an injury in his leg. However the injury was not as serious as feared.[4] Following Nygaard success at club level he was on 31 October called in for the national team.[5] After Randers skipper Ralf Pedersen had left the club to join Viborg FF Nygaard was selected as the new team captain.[6]
Although he failed to impress in the second tier of English football, Nygaard had great personal success following the first half of the 2008–09 season. He managed to score in seven successive matches thereby becoming top scorer along with OB striker Djiby Fall.[7]
