#CELTIC

Celtic won only their second ever away match in the Champions League, recording their first clean sheet in an away Champions League group stage match as they defeated Anderlecht 3-0. @ Raecomm noted: “Don’t understand how anyone can be negative about Celtic’s display/result. Recent history of away CL struggles. Highly competent in Belgium.” @Splstats shared: “The last time Celtic kept a clean sheet away from home in the European Cup/champions League tournament proper was v Werder Bremen in 1988.”
