Union Saint-Gilloise and Bodö/Glimt share six goals in thrilling draw

Union Saint-Gilloise and Bodö/Glimt served up a spectacular attacking display in the Champions League third qualifying round first leg, according to L'Équipe. A dramatic header from Odin Luras Bjortuft in the 90+1 minute, from a Patrick Berg free kick, snatched a 3-3 draw for the Norwegian side when defeat seemed certain.

Berg, who had only just returned from Norway's World Cup campaign after three weeks out, opened the scoring with a stunning direct free kick (20'). The Belgian hosts hit back through Raul Florucz's double (25' and 40+4) and Ole Blomberg's penalty (29'). Promise David, fresh from Canada's World Cup run, appeared to have sealed it with a long-range effort (88'), but Bodö/Glimt had the final say.

Elsewhere in the round, Dinamo Zagreb showed no mercy, thrashing Kauno Zalgiris 5-0. Olympiakos drew a blank at home against NEC Nijmegen, while underdogs Ararat-Armenia and Hapoel Beer Sheva claimed impressive away victories.
