Last time Celtic won away in the Champions League was in 2017.

No pressure, lads.

Remember we are the points fairy….

Any suspect McGinn will see a red card being as he was so desperate to play in this game?

Kamara has been very good at CB and Bogarde was doing fine in midfield. One sub has caused us two separate problems.

Agreed, Emery has had a nightmare with his subs of late.

Before they scored three of our regular back four passed the ball to their forwards under no pressure, a better team punishes those.

Digne struggling for pace against their wide man. Tielemans a liability in a midfield two.

Bailey is out for the 2nd half. Yay. No changes.

Yep all on watkins for me. Simple chance and again misses and costs us.

We just conceded two goals in two minutes. That isn't Watkins' fault.




3  0 and its over

Exactly.  You cant give watkins  a pass. At 3 -0 celtic are done. That was a simple chance.

If we're 3 nil up it doesn't mean that our defence wouldn't have conceded the two that we did. So I don't think it would've been over. Ok so it would be 3 2 at half time but I wouldn't trust us not to concede again. So it wouldn't have been game over.

Singing about the pub bombings in town apparently earlier.  Scum of the earth we really need to do these.
