Parken Stadium was lit up by fireworks last night after FC Copenhagen became the first ever Danish team to reach the last 16 of the Champions League.
With a 3-1 victory over Greek side Panathinaikos, FCK completed its impressive autumn season and secured a place in the history books.
Not only has the team scored more points so far in the domestic league than any other team in history, but it has now also entered the domain of the great European teams.
With the win, FCK secured second place in group D and is now scheduled to meet one of the group winners in the last 16 – one of Manchester United, Schalke 04, Tottenham Hotspur, Real Madrid, Chelsea, Bayern Munich, and either Arsenal or Shakhtar Donetsk.
The draw for the last 16 will take place on Friday December 17.
