Man City on the edge at the moment of elimination. Beating Real Madrid at the Bernabéu and a 1 goal lead will require a big effort.

Disappoint result for Celtic.

How was that not a penalty? For once VAR was 100% and the ref rejects it.

It defies the LOTG, common sense etc. NOT to award a penalty. The old saying of 'anywhere else on the field it is a direct free kick' but the Referee was having none of it because he didn't see it first time. VAR actually did their job by calling the Referee to the screen- he was just arrogant not giving it. 100% referee error- hope he doesn't get another appointment in the C.L. and I would strongly suggest this will be the case. Did he deem to contact (studs on ankle) not sufficient enough to award the penalty? I would love to hear his opinion on it.

Yes eagleboy- but at least we are competing at this level so hopefully it will give the club a much needed confidence boost
and belief moving forward. Always said we were not capable of winning it but the pleasing aspect is Celtic did improve vastly after the hammering from Borussia Dortmund, which is pleasing.

Now they can concentrate 100% on securing yet another treble.

English clubs getting the best of the refereeing decisions this round. Skelly should have gone and so should have Konate, Arsenal and Liverpool very fortunate.

Skelly particularly is turning into a walking red card, he needs to calm down a bit.

Talk about an understatement. How the f*** they came away with a clean sheet and a win out of that is anyone's guess. The keeper had a blinder.

Excellent GK. The Liverpool keeper is just as good.
Are PSG able to get that name on his shirt. It would just about wrap around to the front.
