Man City loses to tiny Bodo/Glimt 3-1 in Champions League stunner

Manchester City slumped to one of the most humiliating upsets in Champions
League history, losing to a 3-1 at tiny Norwegian club Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday.
The second-half sending-off of Rodri completed a miserable evening for
big-spending City in Bodo, a fishing town with a population of around 55,000
and located north of the Arctic Circle --- more than 1,000 kilometers (620
miles) north of Oslo.
Kasper Hogh scored close-range goals in the 22nd and 24th minutes to set
Bodo/Glimt --- a tournament debutant this season --- on its way to its
first-ever win in the competition.
Jens Petter Hauge sent the home fans wild inside the 8,000-capacity Aspmyra
stadium by curling into the top corner in the 58th to make the score a scarcely
believable 3-0.
City replied through Rayan Cherki in the 60th but hopes of a comeback were
damaged by Rodri --- the Ballon d'Or winner in 2024 --- getting sent off in the
62nd minute for collecting a second yellow card in quick succession.
