Insane match between Spurs and Vitesse.
Spurs 1 red card, Vitesse 2 red cards (keeper just got sent off). Score still Spurs 3-2 Vitesse.

85 min, 2-2; can BodĆø/Glimt really hold on ? If so, this would be a truly massive result for the history books.
Glimt player kicks the ball after a Roma free kick and takes a yellow for the team. Perhaps unecessary. 86:59 now.

Glimt makes a double substitute. This makes me hopeful. 87: 29
Mugisha for Pellegrino and Vetlesen for Konradsen.
Mourinho makes a sub as well. Zalewsky in for El Shaarawy-
Massive Roma pressure now but ball is in the hands of the Glimt keeper now. He uses time, already got a yellow for that, so canāt use too much. 89: 50 now.
Imprecise ball in, Keeper can use time again. Ref has given 4 min added time. Survive 4 minutes now, maybe 3 is enough. 1 min of added time played. New Roma corner now. Headed out for a throw in. Roma pressingā¦Pressing and pressing. Free kick for Glimt, excellent.
Glimtās defenders have been like 9/10. They donāt have the constitution of the worlds greatest elite, have done beyond amazing that taken into account.
Glimtās keeper got the ball. Uses a bit of timeā¦ 3: 30 now. 30 seconds left to survive !!!
GAME IS OVER !!! Absolutely phenomenal result !!! Totally stunning !! I am just, wow !
No one can complain about arctic weather or AstroTurf now. They got this result because of their skills.

FUCK, studio shows that Romaās equaliser was an offside 
Just imagine, they would have won without that referee error 
Oh well, still truly amazing.
I see Mourinhoās revenge went as planned.

Not quite. And their second goal was even a very clear offside, as shown in the tv studio ! It could actually have ended with a Glimt win had that mistake not happened. But that is football.
I was sarcastic. 
Well done Bodo.

I know you were sarcastic, I just gave context and thought the offside important enough to mention 
Mourinho with an incredibly angry interview. Seldomly bitter, even for him. He claimed that they should have had 2 penalties. This is not true. They should have had 1, the second situation is not a penalty. However, Romaās second goal is offsideā¦
Just wait until you see that interview. It was quite something.
As for the offside, it is fairly clear, so it is not true that Roma got robbed as such. 
Besides, people have missed penalties before and there was only 1 of them that Roma should have had if there was VAR operational. Mourinho claimed they should have 2 or 3 and was not really a very nice man at all in that interview.

For those who thought I may have been exaggerating the Mourinho interview. Have a watch. I almost believe that if Jan Ć ge had mentioned Romaās offside goal, Mourinho would now be in custody having killed him.

I wondered if Conte a.) cares about this competition or b.) even knows what this competition is.

Horrible result. On the other hand, he should take it seriously. Chance for European glory.
BodĆø Glimt just scored 2-0. They are doing it. Such a small club, it is quite amazing. They are going to reach the next round now and well deserved it is, having smashed Roma at home and drawn against them away. Now beating CSKA Sofia currently 2-0 !
In 2017, when Kjetil Knutsen took over them, being a small time coach in Norway, they were in 1st division (which is really 2nd). Now they won the top league (which is called the Betting League, a name I donāt like, so donāt really want to use) in 2020, will win this season as well. Last year, to everyoneās surprise, they played really well in Europe. Almost beat Milan in the Europa league. This season, they are now cruising through their group !
Results:
This is just super strong for such a small club. Super strong. Very remarkable. And itās not a one season wonder, but built on previous seasons. Most think they played better last year in the Norwegian League and before this season, they had to sell their most prolific goal scorers, like small clubs must. And yet, new ones arose from Knutsenās system. I dare say this is the Fairy Tale story of Europe this seasonā¦

One can always remark that they have an artificial pitch at home that other teams have a disadvantage playing on. This is true. I guess you can also say itās cold up there. But even so, their away results is no joke and they play their system, which works, every game !
By the way, this was their 22nd game not losing in a row. Thatās pretty damn good when itās not only the Norwegian league but European games tooā¦
He does. I am absolutely sure he aims to win it if he can, but difficult of course when he just arrived at Spurs to get many good results in a row (I mean, they sacked Nuno because they werenāt really good). Only in England are European competitions that are not Champions League seen as a bit less important, and perhaps for Real Madrid and Bayern etc. In Italy, they certainly go for them.
But I still view them as one of the strongest teams in the competition.
I think Conte needs 5-6 games to do anything big in London. Much too early to judge imo.

Question is how long should you give him, Nuno was given literally no time whatsoever.
