| The scene is set. |
As always with UEFA Champions League qualifiers at Celtic Park the atmosphere is a mixture of excitement and nervous tension. Tonight was no different although the three goals from Celtic and two goals ruled off side for the Austrian champions helped to lift the tension slightly.
This was Celtic's first meeting with LASK Linz from the north of Austria close to the Czechia border in UEFA competition.
It has to be noted that the fans from Linz where a credit to their club supporting their players throughout despite a difficult night.

Personal note:
- This 1st time seeing LASK. Overall the 5th Austrian club I've seen.
- This was the 8th time seeing Celtic play Austrian opposition
