Bodo/Glimt have delivered one of the biggest shocks in Champions League history by knocking out Italian giants Inter Milan on Tuesday.
The diminutive Norwegian side secured a spectacular 2-1 victory at the San Siro, sealing a 5-2 aggregate win in the play-offs and booking their place in the round of 16.
This remarkable result makes Bodo/Glimt the first Norwegian team ever to win a Champions League knockout tie.
In their maiden season in Europe’s premier club competition, Bodo/Glimt have consistently defied expectations, having already secured wins against Manchester City and Atlético Madrid during the league phase. However, their two-legged triumph over last year’s beaten finalists, Inter, represents their most significant achievement to date.
Second-half goals from Jens Petter Hauge and Hakon Evjen silenced the home crowd in Milan, setting Bodo/Glimt on a collision course with either Manchester City or Portugal’s Sporting CP in the next round.
Alessandro Bastoni managed to pull a goal back for Inter, but by then, the damage had already been inflicted.
