Manchester City fell in a shock 3-1 Champions League defeat to spirited Norwegian side Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday.
Playing three days after their deserved 2-0 loss at cross-city rivals Manchester United, Pep Guardiola’s team was bereft of ideas when Bodo/Glimt dropped into their defensive shape and then vulnerable when the hosts surged forward in numbers.
Bodo/Glimt led 2-0 at halftime after Kasper Hogh twice capitalized on sloppy defending from City in front of 12,000 supporters in northern Norway. Jens Petter Hauge superbly picked out the top corner to establish a three-goal advantage before Rayan Cherki struck for the visitors.
