Odegaard admitted the disappointment was overwhelming after their Champions League exit to Bayern Munich but they have to use that pain as a driving force.

Odegaard said: "Yeah, that is what we have to do. That is the only thing you can do. Every time you get hit you have to stand up and go again.
