Manchester City players have offered refunds to supporters who traveled to Norway for the Champions League match against Bodo/Glimt. This gesture has been acknowledged by the official supporters' club (OSC), which reported limited refund requests from fans.
Kevin Parker, a representative of Manchester City's OSC, commented on the challenging travel conditions to Bodo, citing sub-zero temperatures and difficulties reaching the location. Parker stated that the gesture reinforces the connection between the team and its supporters, acknowledging the players' disappointment following the defeat.
Manchester City was defeated by Bodo/Glimt in what has been described as an upset within the Champions League. Player Erling Haaland characterized the result as "embarrassing" and issued an apology to the traveling fans via TNT Sports, stating that Bodo/Glimt's performance was deserved.
To ensure a top-eight finish in the group phase, Manchester City requires a victory in their upcoming final group-stage game against Galatasaray.
