  • Celtic moved on to nine points from 18 with two fixtures remaining after missing the chance to register that elusive win on their travels in the group stage for the first time since beating Anderlecht 3-0 in Brussels in 2017.

The article from The Independent discusses Celtic's performance in the Champions League, focusing on their recent match against Dinamo Zagreb. Celtic suffered a 1-2 defeat at home, which has left them at the bottom of Group F with no points after two games. The match was particularly disappointing as Celtic had taken the lead through a goal by Kyogo Furuhashi, but Zagreb managed to turn the game around with goals from Petkovic and a late winner by substitute Camara. This loss adds to the pressure on manager Ange Postecoglou, especially after a previous 3-0 defeat to Real Madrid. The article highlights the frustration among fans and the team's struggle to compete at this level, with their next challenge being a match against RB Leipzig.
