In one of the biggest shocks in Champions League history, Manchester City suffered a stunning 3-1 defeat to Norwegian minnows Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday, while holders Paris Saint-Germain stumbled in Portugal and Arsenal maintained a perfect record.

Pep Guardiola’s side, heavy favourites heading into their penultimate group-stage match, were undone by Kasper Høgh’s first-half brace and a second-half strike from Jens Petter Hauge at Aspmyra Stadion, despite a late goal from Rayan Cherki. City also faced the setback of Rodri’s red card, leaving them with ten men and struggling to mount a comeback. The defeat marks Bodo/Glimt’s first-ever Champions League group-stage victory, sparking hope of a play-off spot.

PSG were also caught out, as substitute Khvicha Kvaratskhelia equalised for the French club late in the game before Luis Suárez secured a 2-1 win for Sporting Lisbon. The result drops PSG to fifth, leaving them needing a strong finish against Newcastle to guarantee direct qualification for the last 16.

Meanwhile, Arsenal continued their stellar run, with Gabriel Jesus scoring twice in the first half to help the Gunners seal a top-eight finish. Jesus, visibly emotional, described the night as a “dream” and highlighted the significance of achieving such milestones on the European stage.

Other notable results saw Tottenham beat Borussia Dortmund 2-0, Copenhagen hold Napoli 1-1, Olympiacos defeat Bayer Leverkusen 2-0, Ajax edge Villarreal 2-1, and Club Brugge rout Kairat Almaty 4-1. The final matchday of the group stage will see Mohamed Salah return for Liverpool, Chelsea face Pafos, and Bayern Munich host Union St-Gilloise. The dramatic results underscore the unpredictability of the Champions League, with giants falling and underdogs rising, setting up an intense conclusion to the group stages.
