Fans unforgiving, slam Sporting’s display at Bodø/Glimt: a disgrace | OneFootball

Sporting's 3-0 defeat against Bodø/Glimt in the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 left its mark not only on the field but also in the stands of Aspmyra Stadion, with the fans showing their displeasure towards the team's performance.

About 400 Sporting fans traveled to Norway to support the national champions, but the heavy defeat led to tense moments at the end of the match. Still on the pitch, right after the final whistle, Nuno Santos approached the stand where the Sporting fans were, asking for calm and trying to ease the tension after the disappointing performance.

The discontent continued outside the stadium when the players were heading to the team bus. A small group of fans expressed their dissatisfaction audibly, with boos and shouts like "you're a disgrace" and "play the game."

The setback in Norway seriously complicates Sporting's chances in the tie, leaving the team led by Rui Borges in a very difficult position to reach the quarter-finals of the European competition, with the team needing a significant comeback to stay in the competition.

The green and white team will return to the field next Tuesday, March 17th, again against Bodø/Glimt. The match, counting for the second leg of this round of the Champions League, against the Norwegian team, will be played at 17:45 at Estádio José Alvalade.
