Bodo/Glimt’s players are forced to WALK to the Emirates ahead of their 3-0 defeat to Arsenal

Bodo/Glimt’s players were forced to walk to the Emirates ahead of their clash with Arsenal on Thursday after their team bus got stuck in the surrounding area.

The Gunners beat the Norwegian side 3-0 in the Europa League group stage thanks to goals from Eddie Nketiah, Rob Holding and Fabio Vieira.

But Bodo/Glimt’s players were forced to make an unusual and unexpected alteration to their plans ahead of kick-off when their bus was stuck in traffic and struggled to negotiate the narrow north London streets near the Emirates.

As a result, they walked the final part of their journey to the Emirates with their belongings among several thousands of match-going fans.

Footage from the club’s official Twitter account showed their players disembarking from the team bus before merging into the swathes of supporters heading to Thursday’s game.

The footage was accompanied with the words: ‘The bus got stuck in the narrow back streets and we take our legs for the last hundred meters.’

A second video followed soon after and was captioned ‘Club on tour’.

It showed Bodo’s players walking alongside fans heading to the game who were blissfully unaware that they were being accompanied by the Norwegian side’s players on their journey to the ground. 

Despite defeat, the Bodo/Glimt faithful travelled in their thousands and didn’t stop singing throughout the 90 minutes at the Emirates.
