HOOPS FACE FRESH UEFA CENSURE

- By JOHN GREECHAN

CELTIC face UEFA punishment after a fan leapt from the stands and tried to kick teenage PSG superstar Kylian Mbappe during last night’s Champions League clash. The supporter raced on to the pitch moments before half-time, with the hosts 3-0 down to the big-spending French visitors, and aimed a wild kick easily sidesteppe­d by a bemused Mbappe. The fan, wearing a Celtic scarf, was collared by stewards and escorted from the field — facing a barrage of abuse from fellow supporters infuriated by his actions. Afterwards, Brendan Rodgers condemned his actions, saying: ‘It was bitterly disappoint­ing and I’m sure the club will deal with that. The crowd and their reaction told you everything you needed to know.’
