MATCH 2085 - Thursday 17 September 2026

 SEASON 2026/27

Group Stage

Venue: CELTIC PARK

CELTIC  1  FERENCVAROS  3

Scorers: Baur; Yusuf, Zachariassen, Arzani

A poor performance from Celtic leads to a unexpected and disappointing defeat at home to their Hungarian opponents in their first Europ League group match.

This tie was very close to the anniversary of my first European tie at Celtic Park 44 years ago on the 15th September against Ajax.  While my first ever tie was thrilling this one was underwhelming.

• This was the second time attending this fixture - both in UEFA Europa League group stage
• Overall this was the 4th time attending a European tie featuring a Hungarian side
