In 2018, Bodø/Glimt was struggling against relegation in Norway's Eliteserien. Fast forward to 2023, and the team has achieved a stunning transformation by not only securing their place in the league but also qualifying for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League. Their remarkable journey underscores a significant turnaround in performance and culture within the club, as highlighted by Kristian Fardal Opseth, a former star player who reminisces about the early days of the team's improvements.

The dramatic change is attributed to a shift in the team's culture and mindset, where players have been instilled with a winning mentality, which Opseth jokingly refers to as them being "brainwashed." This transformation has resulted in a historic victory against Inter, one of Europe's football powerhouses, solidifying Bodø/Glimt's place on the continental stage. The club now stands as a testament to the power of correct management and unwavering belief in the team's potential.

Opseth, who played an essential role in Glimt's rise during his tenure, expresses disbelief at the accomplishments made by the team since he left. From narrowly escaping relegation to competing with the best in Europe, Bodø/Glimt's journey reflects not only a sporting success but also a source of pride for Norwegian football. The rise of Glimt illustrates how a team can flourish with the right support, vision, and effort in a competitive environment.
