Subs will be used to great effect I think as we did look a little tired there.
KC could come on and change things a bit as well as GMS at any time.
Set pieces could be crucial for us.

How come we’re wearing the Magners logo on the shirts? I thought it was banned because Heineken are the sponsors?

we need to tighten up a bit and not leave so much space in front of our defence as the main thing now is not to concede but at the same time…..they are there for the taking if we can keep attacking them but it needs to be done with a bit of awareness to what we are leaving to exploit.
BIG-CUP-WINNERS on
We’ve worried ourselves out the game a wee bit and gave them confidence. nothing to do with Malmo, more about us, perhaps holding onto an excellent lead.
Their right back is very poor and Forrest should try his luck against him for 15 minutes.
Dexter says PAY THE LIVING WAGE CELTIC PLC on
Excellent first half. Understandably took foot off gas a little, but that’s fine. Thats confidence. That’s experience.
Only blot for me is Izzy. I love the ghuy but he’s a liability right now. I’d bring CM on.

What is the Stars on
Very good first 25 or so
Third goal would be nice but we don’t need to score again ,either in the second half or second leg
NZB - Beelin' and greetin' Troll Heids on
Just popped in to say, Schveeden nil, the mighty Glasgow Celtic två. Loving it. Come on you bhoys in green. And….off oot again….
Very good performance but these Swedes are not yet feeling they are being beaten.
We could do with an early 3rd as they fancy their chances of sneaking, at least, one.
I think Boyata has been much much more disciplined tonight than he was at the weekend and is releasing the ball much earlier. Izzy’s issues are over-rated too. He is the best LB we have had since Jackie Mac.
We have out-passed them, out muscled them and out run them but they are hanging on in there- fair play to them.
An early goal and a few more corners would be welcome.
P.S. Chris Sutton makes much more intelligent observations, on James Forrest’s areas that need improving, than are commonly found on CQN.
Soz on
Have to say, the Fox coverage is refreshing tonight. Half time, big plaudits for the bhoys.
yorkbhoy on
I think the whole team has played well, but as someone who was worried that JF was stagnating I just have to say he has been a star tonight. Putting in tackles, leaving their players for dead..taking a few knocks and just getting on with it.

Celtic have put THEMSELVES under more pressure than Malmö have . They are there for the taking .
Lennon n Mc....Mjallby on
Seen better spfl sides,only difference being Malmo aren’t parking the bus,toothless up front,the ole sieve could contain this mob.
Almore on
Delighted with that confident, attacking start. I’d still like one more and to concede none.
RWE on
Now Nir’s goal with the same treatment.
Fab stuff.
Hope you’re talking the bhoys a belter at HT Ronny.

Good first half. Need to keep it tighter at the back. If we bide our time we could have this tie over and dusted
Thunder Road on
brilliant bit of awareness from johansen to drop out 5 yards from their defence to be there to receive the ball from stretch and play a perfect 1st time pass to griffiths for his goal.
Quality.

A commanding first 45 mins. Need to replicate that in second half.

malmo are a bit more dangerous than Qarabag but not as good defensively. We need to keep on our toes at the back and not overcommit. There’s at least another goal in it for us here but a clean sheet is so important.
ron67 on
we need a professional european display the second half, no need for a gung-ho attitude, chances will come play with our heads, nothing stupid.
praecepta on
One incisive Team move second half and a 3-0 lead could put qualification to bed – Malmo will not come back from 3 down next week!
'GG on
Why have my butterflies kicked in?
I’m tense, nervous now and yet I was so confident before the game.
2-0 but I feel we need an early goal, again, to put this to bed.

Looked like SJ half sclaffed a shot that fell for LG.
Predator Griff though. Very calm and great first touch.

Only real danger is Celtic letting them back into it with slack play
HT 2-0
Superb first half. A wee bit of slackness giving Malmo some hope but Celtic look very dangerous going forward.
JOLLYBHOYJOHN
Try vipstand,mate.
HT, so far so good.
It’s a nice feeling milling about the CP concourses at HT on a night like this. Smiling hoopy faces. Wish I was there!
Ignore the HT pouncers. Game still on.
Ronny out ☺
Coverage on Fox soccer 2go shows both sets of fans during HT.
Nail biting, cell phoning, toilet dashing, twitching,
And that’s just us..
HT 2-0
Good strong team talk Ronny then back at them.

Had Jo scored to make it 3, I reckon we would have gone on to spank them.
As long as we don’t make any silly mistakes, we should keep theirs to nil, that will do for me.
And don’t take the foot off the gas Celtic

Now they are showing Griff’s goal from about 17 different angles and in slow motion.
Celebration was awesome.
25% of the tie done and dusted and you couldnt ask for more from the hoops.
We need to hold our shape better in the Celtic half, particularly JF who LG who are drifting into each others positions.
Delighted so far.Discipline and cool heads required
1more goal in th Celtic half will kill the tie.
Very good performance but these Swedes are not yet feeling they are being beaten.
