Jose Mourinho has stumbled upon a fresh bogey team after seeing his Roma side fall to a 2-1 defeat against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday night.It's the third.

Obviously, Bodo/Glimt are a tough team, but I also trust we’ll have a good referee and assistant referee in the second leg.” “We lost 2-1 but the return leg is at the Olimpico in front of our supporters. The second goal was from a set piece. The first goal is absurd. He added: “I have total faith in my players, in the stadium, and the support from our crowd. I have no issue saying I feel we’re the favorites to advance to the semi-finals.”

35-year-old rockets stunning goal of the year contender; Jose rages as minnows stun again.

Mourinho was not happy with the match being played on a plastic pitch, saying: “The first goal was ridiculous. People decided that European competitions can be played on plastic pitches.” Braga were unfortunate not to have won by more after Ricardo Horta hit the post while the same player had a 25th-minute goal chalked off by VAR after a foul on Ryan Jack in the build-up. The Foxes are hoping to reach the semi-finals of a European competition for the first time in their history, after also reaching the last eight of the 2016/17 Champions League. In the first leg of the third-tier European competition at the Stade Velodrome, the winger set up Gerson to put OM in front in the 13th minute before drilling home a second on the stroke of halftime. There have already been widespread appeals for the goal to be nominated for the Puskas award for goal of the season in world football.

Leicester 0-0 PSV: Harvey Barnes hit the bar in the first half and Kelechi Iheanacho missed another good chance on a frustrating night for the Foxes.

Start your Independent Premium subscription today. The Foxes were the aggressors and PSV had lacked the imagination to unlock Leicester since Schmeichel’s early duel with Gotze. Initially Leicester failed to settle, with the lively Noni Madueke central to PSV’s early threat, but they gradually began to see more of the ball and wrestled a degree of control.

Leicester were held 0-0 by PSV Eindhoven in the Europa Conference League quarter-final first leg tie at the King Power Stadium.

But an entertaining game was bereft of the all-important finishing touch. Kelechi Iheanacho scooped wide from close range after seizing on an André Ramalho lapse and Harvey Barnes rattled the upright a minute before half-time but Leicester were fortunate to survive a penalty scare when Cody Gakpo was caught in the box. Wesley Fofana was imperious in defence, superbly raking the ball from Eran Zahavi but there were frustrations for Rodgers, who turned on the touchline and winced when Marc Albrighton’s aimless pass upfield was easily gobbled up by a PSV defender. For PSV, backed by a vociferous pocket of supporters, there were also plenty of positives. Iheanacho had Rodgers cursing, the striker’s loose touch abruptly ending a Leicester break. The reality is this tournament is Leicester’s best route into Europe next season, as well as their last chance of silverware this campaign.

We had to suffer sometimes, but we played against a really good opponent. 'In total, I'm very happy with the performance. There weren't too many chances but it's what you expect at this time in the competition. We played a really good game. You'd love to win it, but it wasn't to be.

That could be a big help for all our players." Having also met in the group stage, these teams have now scored 13 goals against each other this season. I believe we will win and make it to the semi-finals." Roma were expected to avenge a 6-1 humiliation in Norway when Bodø/Glimt first visited the Stadio Olimpico in November – but it didn't quite work out like that, the hosts twice going behind and only securing a 2-2 draw thanks to a late Roger Ibañez goal. Former Foxes midfielder Robbie Savage summed up their task: "It's going to be a tough, tough game in Eindhoven. It's not a terrible result; they can go there, play on the counter and take the game to PSV." Mario Götze had a great chance to put PSV in the driving seat when his early chance was saved in Leicester, but on the subsequent balance of play, the Dutch side can be pleased to be starting this game with the scores still level.
