UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUALIYING ROUND 2nd LEG
Venue: CELTIC PARK
CELTIC 0 MARIBOR 1
Scorer: Tavares
This was the first time I'd seen Celtic take on Slovenian opposition. At best they were modest opponents and the defeat was possibly the worst European home defeat that I have witnessed. If not it was certainly on a par with Dynamo Moscow in 2009.
Celtic Park was near capacity for the first time since the last Champions League night last November but the players could not respond to the challenge.
