Bayern Munich end Celtic's Champions League hopes at Parkhead

Bayern Munich are through to the last 16 of the Champions League following a 2-1 win over Celtic at Parkhead.

The Scots put up a valiant fight, but goals from Kingsley Coman and Javi Martinez ended Brendan Rodgers’ hopes of Champions League progression.

Celtic were the more dangerous side in the opening 10 minutes, with Stuart Armstrong coming close to opening the scoring when he was picked out in the six-yard box by a Kieran Tierney cross. The Scottish midfielder should have done better with his close-range left-footed effort.

With Coman and Rafinha regularly peppering the box with crosses, it became clear that Bayern were not intending to attack with balls on the floor. Their opening goal came from a route-one aerial movement, when Sven Ulreich punted down field and Dedryk Boyata failed to claim it. Coman snuck in behind the Belgian, beat an advancing Craig Gordon and calmly put the ball in the net for his first away goal in the Champions League.

On the balance of play, the Bhoys did not deserve to go into the dressing room a goal down at half time — Coman's effort was the only shot on target in the first 45 minutes. Bayern were happy to maintain possession and sit on their lead, knowing Celtic were likely to leave space when pushing for an equaliser.

The home side eventually drew level in the 74th minute, when James Forrest delivered a superb through-ball to Callum McGregor, who duly the ball through Ulreich’s legs. Celtic’s momentum was deflated less than three minutes later, when Javi Martinez rose to meet a David Alaba cross, putting the Germans ahead once again.

Brendan Rodger’s side pushed for another equaliser, but were unable to produce anything, despite nearly seven minutes of extra time.

The win, combined with Paris Saint-Germain’s victory over Anderlecht, put Bayern through to the knockout round. Celtic will need a win against Anderlecht on the next match day to secure Europa League football.

How deep can Bayern Munich go in the Champions League?

Die Roten last won the competition with Jump Heynckes was at the helm in 2013, but can he deliver glory once again? Will the German and Spanish giants feel the threat of the resurgent English teams in the competition?

Kingsley Coman: Coman and Arjen Robben were charged with providing Bayern’s attacking threat, and the Frenchman emphatically rose to the challenge on the left side of the attack. He was a constant threat and enjoyed a 91% pass completion rate.
