Quick Review
Prior to this game the talk was doom and gloom from most Celtic fans, however even though Spartak had the better of the start of the game (with a disallowed goal for clear offside), Celtic got themselves into the game and got a great goal scored very surprisingly by Hartley, but needlessly conceded before half-time. Defensive for most of the 2nd half, with some scares, but we squandered a chance to get a second goal when McGeady put Brown through for a wonderful chance, only for him to take too long. Bodes well though for the return leg.
