"It was not aurora borealis, but rather a large yellow avalanche," writes Portuguese newspaper A Bola.

Spanish Marca wonders whether the Norwegians can go all the way in the biggest men's club tournament:

"Bodø/Glimt just crushed Sporting... Is this the next Champions League champion we're looking at, or what?!" the newspaper writes.

"Bodø continues to dream, and at the moment no one dares to wake them up," writes Spanish AS.

The Norwegians knocked out Inter in the round of 16 and have also beaten Manchester City and Atlético Madrid in the group stage.

The return leg against Sporting will be played in Portugal on March 17.
