Inter Milan suffered a stunning 2-1 defeat at home to FK Bodø/Glimt on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, in a Champions League match that has been widely described as a major upset. The Norwegian side continued their remarkable run in the competition, silencing a stunned San Siro.
Bodo/Glimt took the lead and despite an Inter Milan response, secured the victory with a late goal, according to reports from ESPN. The result marks a significant setback for Inter Milan, who were widely favored to win the match. BeIN SPORTS characterized the win as a continuation of Bodø/Glimt’s “Champions League fairy tale.”
The match saw Dutch international Denzel Dumfries build his return to the Inter Milan lineup, as noted by NOS, but his presence was not enough to prevent the defeat. Former AZ Alkmaar player Evjen scored for Bodø/Glimt, contributing to what AD.nl described as a “spectacular attack” against the Italian giants.
The unexpected result has drawn reaction from football figures, including former Inter Milan player Sneijder, who expressed his enjoyment of the upset despite his allegiance to the Milan club, as reported by VoetbalPrimeur.nl. DraftKings Network had predicted a different outcome, offering a preview and pick that favored Inter Milan prior to the match.
Yahoo Sports reported the probable line-ups ahead of the game, but the on-field performance defied expectations. The defeat leaves Inter Milan’s Champions League ambitions in question, while Bodø/Glimt advances, potentially to face either Manchester City or Sporting CP.
