The European club season drew to a dramatic conclusion on Saturday, with Paris Saint-Germain defeating Arsenal on penalties to retain their Champions League crown. Not since Real Madrid nearly a decade ago had anyone successfully defended the title, making his a truly momentous night for Luis Enrique's men. However, defeat shouldn't take any of the shine off Arsenal's historic campaign, with the Gunners having won the Premier League for the first time in 22 years.
Although they suffered a dramatic exit in the round of 16, Bodø/Glimt’s Champions League campaign remains a fond memory. The new kit is also intended to symbolise the club’s resurgence.
The Brazilians' recruitment of talent from overseas has largely proven to be spot-on in recent years, with players like Marcelo Allende, Brayan Leon, Arthur Sales, Nuno Santos, Miguel Reisinho and former forward Lucas Ribeiro Costa making a strong impact. Their success in identifying and integrating foreign quality has strengthened the Brazilians’ dominance domestically and making themselves a continental powerhouse. However, the club has also faced criticism for overlooking a high-performing Portugal-based talent who, some believe, could have added more value to the squad.
The incredible Champions League journey of Bodo/Glimt has met a dramatic end. After securing a stunning three-goal advantage in Norway, the Arctic underdogs were dismantled by Sporting CP in Lisbon. The Portuguese giants delivered a breathtaking 5-0 victory after extra time, overturning the heavy deficit to secure a historic spot in the quarter-finals.
