After the Champions League adventure the year before, FCK once again tried to make Copenhagen a European football city.

FOOTBALL MEMORIES
FCK entered the season as Danish champions and with the experience from the club's first Champions League group stage the year before. Ståle Solbakken's team included names like Jesper Grønkjær, Marcus Allbäck, Atiba Hutchinson, William Kvist, and a young Mathias "Zanka" Jørgensen. But 2007-08 was the season where domestic dominance was temporarily broken: FCK finished third in the Superliga.
Europe also did not provide the same magical evenings as the year before. FCK reached the UEFA Cup group stage but finished fourth in a group with Atlético Madrid, Panathinaikos, Aberdeen, and Lokomotiv Moscow.
This particular football jersey stood out from the regular 2007-08 home jersey. The Football Kit Archive documents the white/gold version specifically as European Home, while the season's normal home version was white and blue. The gold also makes sense in FCK's own jersey history, where the club has used gold details as a symbol of championships.
