Celtic have moved to second in the Champions League table following tonight’s resounding 5-1 win over Slovan Bratislava.
Bayern Munich top the table after their 9-2 win over Dinamo Zagreb last night in Munich, with Harry Kane scoring four goals, including a hat-trick of penalties.
However, Celtic were sensational this evening in what will go down as a historic night at Paradise.
This 5-1 victory over Slovan Bratislava marks the Hoops’ first win on the opening day of the Champions League since their 1-0 triumph over Rosenborg in 2002, and it came on the familiar turf of Celtic Park.
Celtic face Borussia Dortmund next on October 1st in Dortmund, with the Hoops aiming to build on their impressive start to the Champions League season.
Following an incredible 5-1 win this evening, things are falling into place beautifully for Brendan Rodgers and his squad.
With their momentum and determination, this could be the start of a historic season for Celtic in Europe.
Reaching the play-offs is the goal, and Celtic will be looking to secure points from their home games, with any away results being seen as a bonus.
Tonight’s thoroughly enjoyable win from start to finish sets a positive tone for their campaign and boosts the Bhoys’ confidence as they aim to advance further in the competition.
