Jonas Wind just scored this Panenka for FC Copenhagen, in a crucial Champions League qualifier at Red Star Belgrade.
In front of one of the most intimidating fan bases in Europe.
He’s 20 for goodness sake.
The absolute cheek of it.

Cristiano Ronaldo said this about his future after the Champions League final:
"It was very nice to be at Real Madrid. In the coming days I will give a response to the fans, who have always been at my side."

Seb Larsson's 12 yellow cards earned during Sweden's 2021 Allsvenskan season are just marvellous.
He argues every single one of them.

Plenty has been written about Marcelo Bielsa’s training regimes and fitness demands at Leeds United. And it’s clear to see why he sets such a high standard.
Here’s RB Luke Ayling in the 89th minute, running box-to-box in 11 seconds to set up the

winner. Ridiculous.
Danish club Brøndby IF will reverse their colours and play in blue shirts and yellow shorts against SønderjyskE tonight.
The club will be collecting for Save The Children, with a focus on the 7.5 million kids affected by the war in Ukraine.
The kits will also be auctioned off 👏
Hjælp os med at hjælpe Ukraines børn🇺🇦
Til aftenens kamp samler vi ind til Red Barnet, der p.t. har fokus rettet mod Ukraines børn.
Brøndby-spillerne vil i aftenens kamp spille i det Ukrainske flags farver - blå øverst og gult nederst💛💙

Aston Villa have put in a bid for F.C. Copenhagen centre-half Victor Nelsson, according to claims in Denmark this morning. Plenty of Danish papers reporting it but FCK keep transfers close to their chest.
Somewhere around £9.3m.

If you create a European Super League you don’t get moments like this.
You don’t get millions of fans from clubs in Scandinavia, Scotland, Eastern Europe, Belgium dreaming of ‘giant killings’.
You disenfranchise them. They’ll switch off.
It’s almost 10 years to the day I contacted
@FCKobenhavn
about writing for the club (doing the English stuff). Daniel kind enough to give me a shot...and I’m still here.
It’s been a pleasure to follow and support the team down the years.
#fcklive
For those surprised at how well
@FCKobenhavn
played against
@ManUtd
on Monday, please note they have now gone 32 European games without conceding multiple goals.
This is no accident.
It's the organisation, work ethic and drive required to compete.
Looking back at last night, I think Neestrup has taken F.C. Copenhagen, as a competitive force in Europe, to a level beyond Ståle. There's still the discipline and commitment that Solbakken demanded but there's such a lovely flair that runs through the team now.
#fcklive
Twenty years ago today. Still not sure as a goal (ridiculous overhead kick) and a moment (winning your team the league title against your closest rivals) has been beaten since.
Yes yes yes yes yes!
@FCKobenhavn
are into the Champions League knockout stages for only the second time. First since 2010/11.
What a performance across six gruelling group games.
Four points taken from Gala, three from Man Utd, one from Bayern.

F.C. Copenhagen take on Manchester United tonight. It's going to be loud in Parken (no jumping, mind) and I keep thinking back to what Jacob Neestrup said last month:
"You can't compare it (Old Trafford) to Parken. Parken is way more intense."

Mad to think Pierre Bengtsson's debut for F.C. Copenhagen was against Chelsea in the Champions League 11 years ago. Wish him all the best at Djurgaardens. A great left-back and a proper professional

Thought Zanka was excellent for F.C. Copenhagen today. Perhaps his best performance of the season. In near-total control of the defence and Brøndby's forward line.

There's that grit. If you haven't seen F.C. Copenhagen's doc series on Mohamed Daramy, then check it out. (English subtitles if you so desire 😉)
Daramy's physicality has developed with his footballing nous. He'll be in Denmark's 2022 World Cup squad.
Sunday saw seven home-grown
@FCKobenhavn
players contribute in a 3-0 win over Vejle in the Danish Superliga.
They all came through the F.C. Copenhagen Talent Department.
Six of them are 18 years old.
Neestrup has it right here. F.C. Copenhagen may not have "deserved" to win or even draw last night but over the course of Group A the team at least deserves four points.
You don't always get what you deserve. And sometimes you do. That's football.

I still can't believe that finished 1-1. Dortmund had their chances but FCK could have had six or seven tonight. An exceptional performance from FCK, especially when you consider so many of these players are teenagers in their first

“I used to pay to play football.”
They say romance in football is dead. And yes it is. City are gonna win everything, PSG can’t move for trophies (bar the CL of course), Chelsea.
But sometimes romance shows signs of life. Fleeting, but very much there.
I wasn't able to watch the Copenhagen Derby over the weekend but I followed it on the FCK App.
Would I be right in assuming "you know who" was the man behind these two shots?

It's Aaron Lennon's birthday today.
Still remember his professional debut. Still love the way he runs. Still got that blue

F.C. Copenhagen have four players on the

Elias Jelert
Valdemar Lund
William Clem
Hákon Haraldsson
Only Salzburg have more (5). And it's no coincidence.
This remains one of the naughtiest tifos in football. Copenhagen fans knocking down Brøndby Stadium before the derby.
Afterwards: “Copenhagen is ours”.

I'd say Viktor Claesson was FCK's signing of the year in 2022. Positionally disciplined, cool-headed in attack, and gets just about everywhere. A delightful pre-assist assist from the weekend…

They talk about the Yellow Wall at Dortmund and Spurs’ new massive home end.
Here’s both tiers of

Incredible stuff from

When Jacob Neestrup says tonight's 0-0 draw at Bayern Munich is "one of the greatest European displays in F.C. Copenhagen's history" he's not wrong.
FCK have always had to strike a balance between competing at the top of the Superliga and being underdogs in the UCL.
In all honesty, I think we saw the best of F.C. Copenhagen at Old Trafford. They were far more resolute and adventurous when 11 v 11 in Manchester.
Rashford's red card changed the game but you can't fault FCK's determination and persistency tonight.

Due to Covid I haven't been back to Denmark in more than two years. Being double vaccinated means I can travel but need to self-isolate for at least four days upon landing (possibly 10).
Hoping at some point to see a full house like this again in real life.

Notable take from the Lewis Hamilton contract announcement: "A significant part of the new agreement builds upon the joint commitment to greater diversity and inclusion in motorsport that was made last year by Lewis and Mercedes."
Watford supposedly in 'advanced talks' to sign former Malmo and F.C. Copenhagen keeper Robin Olsen from Roma. What a scoop that would be for the Championship club.
Olsen is a terrific goalkeeper. Can play out from the back, is gangly and imposing, doesn't mind clearing the box.
"Everyone's so desperate for

My favourite Danish phrase, topbrag, is happening again this weekend.
F.C. Copenhagen vs FC Midtjylland. First vs second in the Danish Superliga. An incredible array of talent on show.
Could be beautiful, could be a scrap.
Sunday at 5pm BST. Marvellous.
