Season: 2013/14
QUALIFYING ROUND 2nd Leg
Venue: CELTIC PARK
CELTIC 3 SHAKHTER KARAGANDY 0
Scorers: Commons, Samaras, Forrest
Celtic staged a dramatic comeback against the longest travelled team ever to visit Celtic Park in UEFA football to book their place in the Champions League Group Stage for the second season running.
Trailing 2-0 from the first leg Celtic came out with the intension of getting an early but had to wait until injury time at the end of the first half to half the deficit. A thunderbolt from Kris commons. They didn't have to wait too long for the second though as Samaras took advantage of a kind deflection to neatly chipped over the keeper.
Having got back level Celtic had to concentrate in defence as Shakhter didn't crumble after losing the second but instead went toe to toe in the final stage of the tie and indeed hit the bar following one of their long throw-ins.
As the match went into injury time Celtic dramatically scored their third through James Forrest following great play from Anthony Stokes to win the tie.
