Ajax
OVER! Milik almost wins it for the hosts but he can't get his header on target and it goes over. What a chance to take the three points for his side.

Ajax
GOAL - Ajax 2-2 Celtic! It was coming, Ajax have equalised and Celtic are undone by yet another set-piece. No one can get a connection on Schone's free-kick delivery and it goes straight into the back of the net. Gordon to blame.

Ajax
WIDE! Oh, he's missed it. Klaassen heads wide from close distance when it looked easier to score. Celtic are just holding on now and the central defensive partnership of Blackett and Simunovic have a lot of work to do.

You can sense the relief in that tweet from Celtic...

RED CARD! Izaguirre is shown a second yellow card for a silly and mistimed tackle on Gudelj. Things have just got a lot more difficult for the visitors.

Celtic
Griffiths opts to shoot from a wide angle when a pass was perhaps the better option. Celtic are doing well at the moment, sitting back and hitting Ajax on the counter attack. It has been a thoroughly professional away European performance so far.
