Bodø/Glimt make history in Milan

About this episode

Bodø/Glimt makes history by becoming the first Norwegian team to win a knockout phase tie in the UEFA Champions League.

History was made in the UEFA Champions League this evening, with Bodø/Glimt becoming the first ever Norwegian side to win a knockout phase tie in the competition. Kjetil Knutsen’s side travelled to Milan with a 3-1 first leg lead and completed the job in style with a 2-1 win at Stadio San Siro to progress against Inter 5-2 on aggregate. We hear from the scorer of their first goal and UEFA Player of the Match, Jens Petter Hauge. In Madrid, Atleti saw off Club Brugge 4-1 on the night, and 7-4 on aggregate, after an Alexander Sorloth hat-trick – we hear from the heroic Norwegian. Newcastle progressed 9-3 on aggregate against Qarabag after a 3-2 second leg home win – we hear from Jacob Murphy and POTM Sandro Tonali. And in Germany, Leverkusen drew 0-0 with Olympiacos to progress 2-0 on aggregate thanks to their first leg victory in Greece – we get the thoughts of their defender and POTM Alejandro Grimaldo. We dissect all the action and look ahead to Wednesday’s play-off second legs, including a superbly poised tie between Juventus and Galatasaray in Turin, with the Turkish side 5-2 up after the first leg. We hear from Gala striker Victor Osimhen and Juve defender Lloyd Kelly.
