All
Highlights

90+3'

There goes the final whistle! A 2-0 win for Shakhter at home. Celtic with it all to do in the second leg a week on Wednesday.

90+1'

Canas just brushes Van Dijk off the ball. Really poor stuff by him.

89'

We are into three minutes of time added on.

88'

Matthews watching the ball like a hawk as we head for injury time. Celtic moving forwards.

87'

Celtic awarded a free-kick, but can't profit as the ball ends up in the arms of Mokin.

86'

Mulgrew heads over in acres of space from the throw-in. Had to hit the target with that, but poor, poor stuff by the Scotland man.

85'

Samaras losing the ball out wide to just sum up an evening of complete frustration.

84'

Seems like the selection has been wrong tonight. The central defensive pairing has been a disaster.

83'

Van Dijk drills the ball over the bar. Plenty of power, but not the direction. Another chance not taken by Celtic.

82'

Malyi brings downs Commons from behind, and Celtic have a free-kick 25 yards from goal.

81'

Celtic also change their side as Amido Balde takes over from Izaguirre for the visitors.

80'

Andrei Finonchenko departs to be replaced by Igor Zenkovich.

79'

Steven Mouyokolo drills the ball out of play on the turn. Change coming here for the home side.

78'

Mokin punches clears the Mulgrew free-kick. Celtic with all the possession, but can't turn it into goals.

77'

Matthews is brought down turning in possession. Celtic chase the away goal to boost their hopes in this tie.

76'

Celtic have been dramatically poor in possession, and not much better at the back. They could do with a goal now.

75'

GOAL! Sergey Khizhnichenko rises to nods into the goal from five yards out. Awful defending again by Celtic. Truly awful as Van Dijk is caught on his heels.

74'

Izaguirre loses the ball out wide. Poor play by him. Has to get that ball across in those areas. Poor, poor stuff.

73'

Steven Mouyokolo does well to race back and head back to Forster in the visiting goal.

72'

Celtic down to 10 men as Forster comes to punch clear the delivery by the home side. Celtic look none too convincing at the back.
