UEFA CUP Round of 16, 1st Leg
Venue: CELTIC PARK
CELTIC 1 BARCELONA 0
Scorer: Thompson
Last week was not the first time Celtic had defeated a star studded Barcelona side. In 2004 Martin O'Neill's terrific side of 2003/04 beat nine men Barcelona on an eventful night in Glasgow. After a farcas in the tunnel only 20 players emerged for the second half and soon afterwards another Barcelona star was heading for an early bath. Which left 10 v 9 in Celtic's favour. Celtic took full advantage when Alan Thompson connected with a neat Henril Larsson knock down to win the first leg tie fie.
Barcelona starting XI on the night included Puyol and the best player in the world at the time, Ronaldinho.
