… one other thing. When Dembele won the penalty and scored he hardly smiled. I think we should forget his lack of celebration to Griffs goal last week. The lad is just very self composed.

Well that’s European football guaranteed at least ’til Xmas.
Well done to the hoops but at lot needs to be done for us to hold our own in Europe.Did you notice no Efe tonight but once again Craig Gordon makes another costly blunder so who takes the blame this time ? H.H.
What is the Stars on
We need to improve if we want to beat Dundalk !!!!
Given that BATE Borisov and Olympiacos have now been eliminated, do Legia Warsaw move up to the seeded group meaning we can’t face them in the next round? Or is it Dinamo Zagreb that move up?

About time we got a bit of luck in these qualifiers.
LG could’ve saved our nerves if he’d put away one of those chances, but that’s just a fact, not a complaint against him,after all those goals that got us into these games.
Great achievement by BR to get us through to the final qualifier, given the short time he’s had, the injuries and the lack of much-needed signings for the level we’re aspiring to.
And so good to have watched an important, spirited and typically exciting Hoops European home match before the Farce begins in under 65 hours.
Still plenty of time to call it out, Celtic.

Better team won, but how fine are the margins?
Really glad we’re through and guaranteed European football. This team needs strengthened if we are to make any kind of mark beyond these shores, but you can already see the positive effect BR is having on style of play: faster, slicker, more composed.
Hope young Paddy is OK.

Very pleased, followed it on the BBC website, being far from Paradise.
I wonder how Ronnie feels tonight? Reflecting on the Norwegian for Napoleon’s most famous question – Er han heldig?

Craig Gordon….Ive said before…his mind wanders, spreads to the rest of the team.
Good result and decent performance tonight from the Bhoys, goal conceded apart. Astana really didn’t threaten and we were pretty much in control for duration although us losing Paddy had them lose a wee bit of their fear.
Still, we didn’t create too many clear cut chances but played them well at their own game drawing fouls outside the box and pens in it. Great bit of play by Dembeli and Leigh for second pen and good bravery from KC for first.
Thought the Brendan made a mistake going to 3 at the back when he brought Toure on as I thought defensively we were solid as I have seen us for about a year until that point. Although Astana were always likely to come out a little more towards the end I suppose.
I’m almost certain Legia move up to take the Olympiacos seeded spot. So should be good news to not have to face them again!

They were without doubt the pishiest (sp?) side we have faced in a long time. Worse than the imps in my opinion.
Craig Gordon made a serious blunder to give them their goal, but thank goodness we had a referee who understood the rules for once and actually gave us the two stonewall penalties that occurred.
What a concept.
As Paul predicted, they fell apart at the end as jet lag took over. Nice one.
No idea why they all looked to shell shocked at the end. Unless it was because they couldn”t get their head round the fact that they got so close in the first place.

Miserable? We were poor against a poor team. How many saves did their keeper have? a shot off target is always a poor shot. we rely too much on Roberts and Griff. others need to step up.. and somebody cut Forrests fringe off, spennd sall game flicking it away wi

We got through by the skin of CG’s teeth. He has become a liability, sorry to have to say. He has gifted quite a few freebies over the last couple of seasons. Especially in European games. So, IMO, it should be thank you for your services to Celtic but “Its time to say Goodbye”.

Celtic tv. That’s it? No post match?
Just in from Training… Switched radio on to hear full time whistle…
Did I miss much?
The best team won nothing more to say
It’s building. Can you feel it?
That was the mythical ‘Celtic way’. Never easy but always a rush!!!!
I love Celtic! From the tips of my toes to the top of my head and the depths of my soul!!!!
Hail hail
Almost as good as the Vojvodina game. It’s so much better when you are there!
Charlie Gallagher CSC
We gifted them a life line, then we snuffed them oot.
Cruel bassas so we are :-)
Imagine relying on on a 19 Year old, hail hail, BR thank you.
JC I have palpitations bad for the nerves this
Get up The Yard
That Dembele might never score another goal and still be a legend..
Great result
Well Paul67 was right when he said he hoped we had been practising our penalties
Right Pedro.
Brendan and the players have done their bit………
It’s your turn now
and breath…
Delighted with result but wish we didn’t celebrate like we won the thing.
Me an’ my bhoy PJ bhoy on the house!
It’s Legia, nothing surer

I was impressed with Kolo

Dundalk would be wonderful, but it’s Celtic and we never get it easy.

He is a weak link in the team.
New keeper required imo.

Lesson.
The Janko / Paddy combo needs refining.
Paddy likes the ball side on and often halfway line , so he can have the opportunity to run at the defender.
Janko was ” crowding him out ” and giving defenders the opportunity to hit him from behind and close him down.
I really don’t agree with Celtic repeatedly not doing all they can to strengthen the squad in advance of these qualifiers.
