Bodo/Glimt shock Atletico Madrid to reach Champions League play-offs

0


Bodo/Glimt came from behind to beat Atletico Madrid and secure a spot in the Champions League knockout round play-offs.

The Norwegian champions, who had also defeated Manchester City 3-1 last week, finished the group stage in 23rd place and will play a two-legged tie next month for a place in the last 16. Atletico, who finished higher in the table, looked set for a top-eight finish after Alexander Sorloth scored early.

Bodo/Glimt equalized 19 minutes later through Fredrik Sjovold and then Kasper Waarts Hogh scored the winner in the 59th minute, giving the Norwegian side their first away win in the competition.

Bodo/Glimt will face either Real Madrid or Inter Milan, while Atletico will take on Club Brugge or Galatasaray. The draw for the next round is on Friday.
