There is an unusually sombre tempo head of tomorrow’s Champions League last 16 tie, a consequences of the 0-3 reversal at home three weeks ago and the general sentiment around Scottish football this week, but this match is an excellent test for both manager and playing squad.
We are a Champions League team again with aspirations to achieve at this level next season. Having finally overcome the hoodoo of never having won away from home in the competition, we must use occasions like tomorrow to continue our growth in the competition.
We defended our 18-yard line in the Camp Nou and almost got away with a point. The plan was wrong in Lisbon, where a talented Benfica controlled midfield and recorded a narrow win, but the win against Spartak in Moscow was deserved.
Celtic might not be able to qualify for the quarter finals but they can win the match tomorrow; this is an achievable objective which would sweeten the inevitable medicine.

Honest mistake at sending off?
I have been sitting watching Dortmund playing Shaktar and realise that I am not getting excited about it although both teams are playing good football. Thank you, SFA. Knowing that you are prepared to openly cheat to benefit the Establishment club has destroyed something in me. I do hope I still get the old nerves tomorrow night.
I’m off to watch the Louvre on BBC4. Haven’t been there since 1968, when the Sorbonne was in turmoil.

Was reading that the new stadium was on the site of the old one. It really was a dull place over twenty years ago similar to an industrial estate. Get a cargo somewhere watch your back and i hope u find that hotel have fun keep safe
RONALDO
2 to1
Ronaldo scores
Utd heading oot
2-1Ronaldo
Manure finished
Its all over for utd
Man u oot.
Advantage RM now after screamer from Modric. Games like this should not be unbalanced by daft decisions from referees or those who want to make a name for themselves….
2-1 Madrid….Ronaldo. Game over!
No sympathy for Manc supporters though!
T4
I have no sympathy for united.
Swallex will hunt that ref ….
Ref has given this game to real madrid.
Man Utd shouldn’t be struggling this much at home though, even a man down.
Ref is going to get pelters from English media tomorrow…
Why is Mohrinio not celebrating the so very important goal …? …..is he heading for ManU next season ?
Ref has lost it.
Are we the last British team in the Champions’ League now?

Arsenal
Would prefer not to get Madrid until the final.
Come on you ninos in green
Trying to find out what school nani went
67Heaven – a free spending Arsenal would be a major attraction for the top managers. Wenger must be finished by now?!
T4
67heaven
Think he and Swalex are friends
TTTT
Free spending Arsenal…..no such thing
I feel sorry for Man U I must admit. Game turned on its head by a terrible decision by the ref. Never like that in games like this.
I thought the red card wasn’t unreasonable. The initial contact was accidental but Nani straightens his leg, pushing off his oponent studs to ribs. Only saw that bit of the game waiting for Elementary to start. Vinnie Jones playing Moriarty? Unbelievable.
I reckon 90% of the English tv audience will be happy with this result.
