Another great performance. Seeing some really excellent football from Celtic these days.

What a show of attacking football that was from Celtic today. 5 goals and a catalogue of chances missed. Think we went to sleep defensively after Brown made it 4-1 but hard to be too critical in a cup semi-final when you win 5-2 and still missed a bunch of chances. Elyounoussi was a well deserved man of the match and just keeps getting better and more deadly now that he seems to have settled into the team. Love how hard to works for the team without the ball as well.

McGregor and Forrest tied up on long contracts over the past few days, absolutely delighted with that business. Two players who are a core part of our team and our system.

Very important work in securing those two, especially with Rodgers sniffing around.

Lennon has matured into an excellent manager, it's clear he was the one and only choice to replace Rodgers when he left, but in the longer term he's also the right man for the job and he's proved that in spades. He's had his challenges with injured players, and having to replace the likes of KT and Lustig, and he's done remarkably well. Great mix of players at the moment, young, not so young, loan players, new players and they all seem to love playing for him.

Great to have Forrest & McGregor signed up, very important players for us.

Yeah looks like I was wrong being against Lennon taking over, he has built an excellent team with a big changes required as you said. We're playing some great football and it's obvious the players have bought into Lennon's ideas on how the team should be playing.

I was delighted to see Celtic sign McGregor to a 5 year deal no less. That will see him injuries aside entering into and playing his peak career years as a Celtic player. Absolutely fantastic news really. I would think too that in McGregor we have the natural successor to Brown both in terms of playing position and club captain and leader whenever Brown does hang up his boots.

1-1 at half time, Lazio went ahead early and then Forrest equalised with a great goal after 37 minutes. Overall, Celtic have been sloppy in passing and play

Wow! Celtic have beaten Lazio 2-1 with the last play of the game in the 95th minute.

Brillient 2nd half - what a finish

LiamoSail · 07-11-2019 08:53PM

Only saw the first hour or so. Celtic were decent in the first half and excellent in the first period of the second half.

Beating Lazio 2-1 away is a very good result, and an excellent one in the context of Celtic’s European away showings in the modern era. Lennon deserves huge credit for that.

sligeach · 07-11-2019 08:56PM

It's the first time Celtic have won away against Italian opposition in 13 attempts. It was a nice finish for the winner.

Thought it was going to be the same old story after those opening minutes but **** me what a turnaround, i was sure Nitcham had sliced it wide and was bollocking him

First leg is likely to be away but don't care I booked Glasgow for the 20th Feb for a tenner

TheCitizen · 07-11-2019 10:03PM

Brilliant. We didn't start the game well at all especially at the back where the change of formation was causing problems, but to regain composure and impose ourselves on the rest of the game like that was very impressive. The second half we hounded them and had several chances to score on the counter attack before we got that fully deserved winner. Some great saves again from Forster.

Qualified with two games to spare. Outstanding from Lenny and his team.

Wow what a performance by Celtic. The way we started those first 10 minutes I thought it was going to be a long night but as we have done a few times already this season this team has some real character and mental toughness to it. By the time we got the equalizer we fully deserved it. Then the second half I flat out through we were the better team. Sure they had some chances and Forster made some good saves but we had more and better chances and really I thought we fully deserved the win over the 90 minutes. A truly great and historic European night and victory for the club. Absolutely brilliant.
