Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has claimed Bodo/Glimt were better on transition and had momentum, following their 3-1 defeat in Norway in the Champions League on Tuesday.
Kasper Hogh stunned City with a quickfire brace in the first half, before Jens Petter Hauge added a third after the break.
Rayan Cherki pulled one back for Guardiolas men, but Rodri picked up two bookings and was sent off, ending hopes of a comeback.
