Quick Review

Some slack play by Kolo Toure in the eighth minute let Shaun Maloney in but Lehmann came to his rescue with a good block with his feet. Celtic allowed Francis Jeffers to get away in the 17th minute only for the former Everton striker to pull his shot well wide with just Hedman to beat. It was Ashley Cole's mistake in the 29th minute that gifted Momo Sylla a great chance, but the Celtic midfielder dragged his shot wide from the edge of the box.
Celtic made the long-awaited breakthrough after 55 minutes with a wonderful goal by youngster Liam Miller. Sylla flicked on Neil Lennon's cross and the midfielder chested the ball and swivelled to hit a shot that ended up in the back of the net despite Lehmann's best efforts.
Kanu pounced on a mistake by Stanislav Varga to equalise in 70 minutes.

Trivia

Celtic had suffered a nightmare return from Uefa Cup victory in Lithuania, when their take-off was aborted and their return was delayed by a day.
