"It's a very good feeling, I am quite happy with my own and my team's performance. It was quite an open game. We could have controlled it more, but it was quite a good performance against a good team. It will be a really difficult game in Lisbon [next Tuesday], but if we just continue the way we defend and attack as a team, I think we could also make trouble for them there."
"The Norwegians have now won all of their last five Champions League matches, becoming only the sixth team from outside Europe's big five leagues to record such a streak. They were helped by their free-scoring line-up. In Jens Petter Hauge, Fet, Blomberg and Hogh, Bodo have four different players who have been involved in at least five goals in the Champions League this season, with only Bayern Munich having more players doing so in 2025-26."
Bodo/Glimt secured a commanding 3-0 victory over Sporting CP in their Champions League round of 16 first leg at home. Sondre Fet scored from the penalty spot in the 32nd minute, Ole Blomberg added a goal before halftime, and Kasper Hogh sealed the win late in the match. The Norwegian club has now won five consecutive Champions League matches and boasts four players with at least five goals in the competition this season, matching Bayern Munich's output. Bodo has scored 20 Champions League goals total, becoming only the second Norwegian team to reach this milestone. Despite the dominant performance, Fet acknowledged the difficulty of the upcoming second leg in Lisbon but expressed confidence in their defensive and attacking approach.
