5 d. ago Late own goal rescues point for Spurs at Bodø/Glimt after Hauge double

These are strange times for Tottenham. Historically they’ve often been a side whose performances didn’t match their results, but tradition has it they would be pretty and ineffective. Under Thomas Frank they’ve become the opposite. Just as at Brighton they went 2-0 down and came back to draw; again, there was more to admire in their character than how they played. And if Andreas Helmersen’s effort hadn’t hit the bar with a couple of minutes remaining, it would have been a very different story.This was Bodø/Glimt’s first home game in the group phase of the Champions League, and they were determined to make the most of it. The pre-match singing of the club anthem was heartfelt and gently moving, and followed by the rhythmic detonation of a series of fireworks, startlingly loud in the still Arctic night. European football has little place these days for romance but Glimt remain an example of what can be achieved by enlightened leadership even in a remote town of just over 50,000 popula...

Sign up now!As regular readers will be aware, Football Daily is normally in the business of peddling cheap and often unfunny yuks, and certainly didn’t get where it is today (specifically: unread and ignored in tens of thousands of spam folders) coming over all mawkish and maudlin. But occasionally, we stumble upon a heartwarming yarn we’re surprised we hadn’t already heard and feel compelled to share it with a wider audience. This tearjerker has its origins in Wednesday’s Bigger Vase opener between Red Star (AKA Crvena Zvezda) and Celtic, two fallen giants of European football, who pulled off the ignominious feat of losing their respective Bigger Cup playoffs to minnows so obscure even the most seasoned of football hipsters had barely heard of them. And so it came to pass that, with Pafos and Kairat Almaty currently lounging it up in the top tier of European competition, the storied champions of both Serbia and Scotland have been left to slum ...
