FC Copenhagen aims to upset Manchester City in Champions League clash

Manchester City's head coach Pep Guardiola waits for the start of the Group G Champions League soccer match between Red Star and Manchester City, at the Rajko Mitic Stadium in Belgrade, Serbia, Wednes

A little over four months ago, FC Copenhagen, also known as FCK, made headlines when they defeated Manchester United 4-3 in a UEFA Champions League group game at Parken Stadium in Copenhagen. This victory was not their first against a powerhouse club, as back in 2006, FCK had also beaten Manchester United in their first-ever Champions League group stage appearance. These victories have set the tone for FCK's European adventures, establishing a formidable record at home.

FCK has played 18 Champions League games at Parken Stadium in their history, losing only two of them. Their home support, particularly the ultras in Sektion 12, generates an intense atmosphere that puts visiting teams on edge. This passionate crowd has witnessed FCK achieve remarkable results against some of Europe's top clubs, including drawing with Barcelona's legendary team coached by Pep Guardiola, securing a 1-1 draw back in 2010.
