Looks like Rosenborg are about to knock out last year's finalist Ajax! Won 1-0 in Amsterdam, and have taken a 1-0 lead at home too!
 
So far Legia Warzawa, PAOK, Fenerbache and Club Brugge have been knocked out and Panathinaikos and Ajax look set to follow. Couple of other teams just needing a goal for an upset as well.
 
Wooops. I have a friend who's a big Rosenborg supporter, I saw that they were up 1-0, so sent him an SMS congratulating him, telling him it must be exciting. Just got a "fudge off" back - thought, what the hell, checked the result again, and Ajax apparently scored two goals in less than a minute! Insane. :p
 
Ajax have had their team gutted this summer, but I still couldn't fathom how they could be losing a side as terrible as this Rosenborg one.
 
Having Nicklas Bendtner as your star player says it all, really. :p

Being the lazy clam that he is, he will just lower himself to the level of 'least amount of effort necessary'. They don't create chances, only reason they score any goals is that the other Norwegian sides are way worse.
