Venue:  CELTIC PARK

CELTIC    1    DINAMO ZAGREB    0

Scorer:  Commons

My 107th Celtic tie in European competition, the second v Dinamo Zagreb and like the previous encounter this one ended in a 1-0 Celtic victory.

It was a sublime Kris Commons goal gave which gave Celtic the victory in this Europa League tie.  However it was an inspired performance from Craig Gordon which prevented the Croatian side from taking something from the game.

ENGLISH LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP
Venue:  BLOOMFIELD ROAD

BLACKPOOL    1    NORWICH CITY    3

Scorers:  Delfouneso; O.G. (Daniels), Grabban, Murphy

Second bottom v Second top!

Third occasion watching Norwich since 2009 and their third win. After two 1-0 victories over Carlisle and Celtic this was a much better game and performance.  This one was achieved the hard way as they needed to come from behind after missing a number of good first half chances

With this victory Norwich went top of the league.
And Blackpool are now bottom!

Personal note:  10th Blackpool game since 1981, 8 of which at Bloomfield Road.

1990 - Hearts 2 Celtic 2 (Celtic won on pens.)

2007 - Celtic 0 Hearts 2

2009 - Celtic 0 Hearts 1
