90'+3
FULL-TIME: Celtic 1- Salzburg - The Austrian champions reign at Celtic Park as the Scottish champions flater against the Red Bull-backed team who showed their technical quality and tactical maturity to out-class their hosts.
90'+2
Celtic go straight up the other end to try their chances but the only shot they can manage crawls out behind the goal rather than into it.
90'+1
GOAL! Salzburg 3-1 Celtic (Keita) - Salzburg have been deserving of a third given how well they've controlled the game and how erratic Celtic have been. Keita latches onto a rebound to make it 3-1 after Kampl's shot is parried.
90'
The match officials are indicating that there will be a minimum of three minutes added. Ronny Deila throws his hands up but there can't be any complaints. There have been no real incidents or stoppages worthy of granting any more. Salzburg look good to hold out for the win now.
88'
Salzburg send a ball out for a Celtic throw-in, with the Hoops sending their throw long into the opposition half. It's now or never for the home side.
85'
We're into the final five minutes at Celtic Park with Salzburg looking in control. Celtic will need a fantastic finish to get something out of this game, however with the result still going their way in Romania it won't hamper their qualification bid.
76'
Subs for Salzburg: Marcel Sabitzer on for Jonathan Soriano and Christian Schwegler for Peter Ankersen as the Austrians look to wind down the game.
76'
Ramalho looks compeltely cool and composed as he chests and heads down every Celtic pass that comes within his area. He's taken the sting out of every attack that's come near him.
74'
Celtic sub: Aleksandar Tonev comes on for Charlie Mulgrew.
72'
Salzburg sub: Naby Keita comes on for Massimo Bruno.
70'
Salzburg regain possession and send the ball forward, winning a corner. Soriano takes it short, sending the ball to Bruno. He dribble forward, plays Soriano back in who sends a delicious pass across the face of the goal. Alan stretches for it at the far post but he can't quite connect with the ball. That should have been his hat trick.
69'
Soriano breaks forward and is soon joined by Kampl and Alan. Their attempts to probe Celtic's back line are rebuffed however and the hosts eventually win a freekick after Forrest is throw down by Hinteregger.
68'
Commons is almost immediately invovled in the box, with a corner bobbling about loose but none of the Celtic attackers can get a touch on it. The substitutions appears to have already added some spark to the hosts' attack.
66'
Substitution: Anthony Stokes makes way for Kris Commons, while James Forrest comes on for Callum McGregor, to take up position on the right flank. With Schmitz on a yellow, the wide man will look to take advantage of the full-back.
65'
Alan puts it out for anotehr corner but Stokes can't get it past the first man. A deep cross flies in but it sent out for Salzburg counter. Forrest waits on the sidelines to replace Stokes, but the game continues on.
64'
Forrest is coming on for Celtic as he takes off his training kit on the sidelines. Meanwhile a bit of to-and-fro takes place on the field with the Hoops eventually winning a corner. Van Dijk wants th delivery. Can he get his head on it?
62'
And here Salzburg come. The Austrians counter through Bruno, Alan and Soriano with the trio combining to put the Spaniard on the ball in the middle. His shot curls wide however. It just goes to show the threat still posed by the Red Bull funded side. Celtic can't afford to throw too much forward. They just need to find the forwards they've already got up top with better timed and higher quality deliveries.
60'
An hour gone and Salzburg remain ahead. Celtic are yet to look convincing this half and will require a large chunk of luck to claw this back if things stay as they are. The Austrians still look capable of turning it back on if they need to. Unfortunately for fans of the home side, they don't seem to.
58'
James Forrest warms up on the side lines as Mulgrew jogs gingerly on the sidelines. The Scot looks winded as nurses his ribs, however he is coming back. No need for a substitution just yet.
57'
Griffiths tries a flick but Salzburg appear wise to every trick in teh Celtic forward line's arsenal. However the game is becoming scrappier with Charlie Mulgrew being taken out in the middle of the park. The Scotland international appears to be in pain, clutching the back of his leg and his torso.
