Champion's League Adventures

Celtic Vs. Benifca

Previous to this my total 'live' champion's league experiences were Celtic vs. Armedia Bratislava last season and Celtic vs. FC Copenhagen a couple of weeks ago. Third time was defnitely a charm. With 4 of the potential starting line-up missing (Gravesen, McGeady, Wilson and Hesselink) I wasn't sure what kind of game we were going to be treated too.

Turns out it was an absolute belter with Celtic romping to a 3-0 win in front of a loud and enthusiastic crowd of fans. The fans kept singing and Celtic kept scoring with Pearson grabbing the 3rd in the last 5 minutes to put Celtic in an excellent position to qualify for the next round. The away game to benfica is crucial though. If we can get anything out of that game then it will put us in the home stretch for qualification!!!
