Real Betis are home to Bayer Leverkusen tonight, both having six points from two games in the Europa League group also containing Celtic and Ferencvaros. If we can all agree that Leverkusen occupy a universe far beyond Celtic right now, catching Betis is the only realistic prospect Celtic have of qualifying for the knock out stage.
That 4-3 defeat in Seville still rankles; we played very well and deserved to go two goals ahead, before a familiar crumble. A point, or more, was possible. So too is a win against Betis in Glasgow, although other results are also a realistic outcome.
If Leverkusen win tonight and Celtic can beat Ferencvaros in Budapest, second place in the group could come down to what we can do against Betis in Glasgow. Of course, there is a case to be made that third place and the Europa Conference, is a better prospect that facing a Champions League dropout team in the first Europa knock out. It is also a lot more likely.

So Stephen Craigan is neutral and Alex Rae is resident zombie.
How does that work ?
Usual pro hun Scottish crap on BBC website again tonight. Richard Wilson really is another level of bigoted bitter editors. Hiding away and controlling his minimum wage scribes on there.
Maybe living wage actually
Por Cierto youve kind of read my mind there. Overheard a proper horrible hun say he wouldnt pay the price today. Desperation id say
Brondby look a very limited team. I’m surprised that they are Champions of Denmark.
B78
surely zombies get paid an unliving wage.
Let me get this straight. Dixie misses our first penalty against Inter back in 72.
Celtic lose 5 – 4
Some on here think we only took four penalties…….
The cameras missed Celtic’s final penalty by Murdoch and viewers thought the score was 5-3 on penalties.
If Brondby can score , I’ll be interested to see if Rob McLean has the same kind of screaming orgasm he had when Sevco scored .

Have you got a link to that article?

boom💥

Lundstrum can’t understand getting a yellow at the Bigotdome
Now am offside goal against them! Bring in the chairs at George Square.
VAR
Even Craigen says that’s a horrendous decision . John Beaton the VAR analyst?
“Were you at the game caller?”

Goal this VAR IS BROKE!
Looked offside to me.
Well not watching anymore of Hun game, sound off but no idea why that goal stood
Commentary team have two looks at Roofe goal and think it’s a terrible decision by ‘incompetent’ VAR official. They haven’t a clue. I thought it was a goal after seeing the action replay. Defender’s heel was playing ref onside.
that was as blatant as an offside you will ever see – unless I don’t understand the rules. Morelos header when roof is a yard offside (clearly) – keeper saves and the ball falls to roof to tap in. Offside – I don’t get it!
Why VAR would fail in Scotland…….huns would have a field day .
As I made that post they acknowledged their error. They had the action replay and two VAR looks at it and still couldn’t see that it was onside and yet they accuse the officials of incompetence. Money for old rope.
Brondby look considerably poorer than any of the teams in our group .

…………..
Look at the defender’s trailing foot. It is nearer the goal than Roofe.
Brondby would be our groups whipping boys, very frail in defence, toothless upfront.
Craigan doesn’t know the bliddy rules. Thinks Roofe is a yard offside when keeper saves the ball. It applies from when Morelos heads the ball and that puts Roofe just onside. Calling the VAR official names and ridiculing VAR. This clown gets paid good money as a pundit. You’d think he’d know the rules.
Just enjoying a wee glass of Bowmore 12 year old Islay single malt.
40% abv.
This really is a special malt.
Smoky, not to peaty.
It is almost perfect.
Lovely way to end the day!
A lot of strange comments continuing re Celtic v Inter penalty shoot-out. Having watched the video earlier, it is clear that when Inter scored their 5th penalty to make it 5-3, the entire Inter team, including their keeper, ran to the corner in wild celebration.
There was no 5th Celtic penalty. Can’t even begin to understand why people think there was.

When Dixie missed his penalty , I was too stunned to remember clearly what happened after that .
PHILBHOY

Goodnight all

Me too. We got knocked out of Europe.
Tom English. League is in Celtics gift now.

It is my favourite medium priced malt.
Have you tried Glenfiddich Solera Reserve, 15 year old single malt. 40% abv.
It’s about £45 a bottle and about as much as I can afford, now and again.
Wonderful!
Tom. Its in the match reports. On the Celtic wiki. Murdoch took a penalty into empty net. I take it in them days you had to take 5 each to complete the match.
