Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers took “immense pride” from their Champions League efforts after they secured “European credibility” by pushing Bayern Munich until the final moments in Germany.
There was frustration for Celtic that Daizen Maeda did not get a free-kick after being caught in the face by the arm of Bayern defender Dayot Upamecano before the hosts went forward and ultimately scored in a different phase of the attack.
But the hosts exerted some sustained pressure late on and Alphonso Davies scrambled the ball home from a yard out with the four minutes of stoppage time almost up to seal a 1-1 draw and 3-2 aggregate victory.
Celtic had created four good opportunities in the opening 20 minutes and matched Bayern for long spells.
We’ve got two titles to go for, get into the Champions League next season, look to build the squad again.
