12'
Armstrong breaks away from Rudy, and finds Griffiths on the right. The ball runs to Sinclair once he's tackled, but he can't get a shot away.
7'
Bayern want a penalty. Lustig pulls down Lewandoski in the box, down the right hand side, and the referee ignores it. That's a generous decision.
5'
GOAL! No - Thiago thinks he has a goal in the early stages, but it's ruled out when Lewandowski is ruled to have pulled the ball back from over the toucline.
3'
Celtic holding their own so far, but they will be lucky to carry that on.

Brendan educates: "We're going to have to be resilient but we've got to be confident enough to play. We respect we're playing against fantastic players. They'll be highly motivated and they'll want to come out and really press the game and show their qualities."

Jerome Boateng on Jupp Heynckes' return: "I decided to stay here and I didn't want to just run away after a bad spell. You can see from the way we are training now that the team is having fun again and that the trainer has an intuition for things."

This game is about one man. One legend. One person who has changed football for the better with his fascinating approach to the game and peerless intellect. It is Brendan Rodgers. The unmatched success he has enjoyed over his career suggests that victory will not come easily for Bayern - if it comes at all. I think, as the great man said once, more or less, this is a wonderful chance for the people to come and see what magical thing it is that Rodgers is producing.
