Bodo/Glimt beat Borussia Dortmund 1-0.
The UEFA Champions League league phase match took place on 14 October 2026 at Aspmyra Stadion in Bodø/Glimt. The Norwegian side hosted German giants Borussia Dortmund in a tightly contested encounter that was decided by a single goal.
How it unfolded
The first half was largely uneventful, but tension rose early when Borussia Dortmund’s Kouakou Gadou received a yellow card in the 13th minute for a bad foul. The booking did not alter the flow of play, and both teams continued probing for openings. Six minutes later, Dortmund’s Fábio Silva was also shown a yellow card for a bad foul, leaving the visitors with two cautions before the half-time whistle.
The deadlock was finally broken after the interval. In the 52nd minute, Bodo/Glimt’s Fredrik Sjøvold capitalised on a well-delivered cross from Sondre Auklend. Sjøvold’s left-footed shot from the centre of the box found the bottom right corner, giving the home side a 1-0 lead. The goal proved to be the match-winner as neither side could find an equaliser.
Standout performers
Fredrik Sjøvold was the decisive figure, scoring the only goal of the night with a clinical finish from inside the box. His teammate Sondre Auklend provided the key assist, delivering the cross that set up the strike.
