SEASON 2025/26
Group Stage
Venue: CELTIC PARK
CELTIC 4 UTRECHT 2
Scorers: Nygren, OG, Engels, Trusty; de Wit, Blake
Celtic ended their Europa League group campaign against Dutch side Utrecht with a good win which meant qualification to the play off stage.
Celtic raced into a three goal lead thanks to a little helping hand from their Covid season goalie Barkas before Utrecht reduced the lead with two long range strikes. The win was secured with a header from a corner midway through the second half.
Utrecht brought a magnificent support of around 2,500 with them considering they had a poor group stage and were already eliminated.

Personal note:
- The second time attending this tie in UEFA competition
- My 7th UEFA European tie of the season
- This was the 8th time I've seen Dutch clubs in UEFA competition since 1982 all against Celtic
