Crazy OG costs Celts in Rennes

Celtic found a new way to shoot themselves in the foot as they dropped two points thanks to a crazy first half og.

Celtic looked to be coping well throughout the opening half hour before a moment of madness saw them fall behind. A long kick out from the home keeper looked to be heading through to his counterpart Fraser Forster before Cha Du Rai too control.

 

Or should that be mis-control, for some reason he took a touch and sent the ball past his stranded keeper and the ball rolled slowly into the Celtic goal.

 

Following on the number of defensive disasters recently this taking it to a new high. With no communication between two players under no pressure with a ball which should have been dealt with easily.

 

This will give Neil Lennon nightmares in the weeks to come as he struggles to find a way of putting an end to these horror shows.

 

Credit to Celtic they plugged away in the second half and after a double miss from Stokes and Ki they pulled one back with twenty minutes to go.

 

Another great delivery from Charlie Mulgrew was headed high into the net by Joe Ledley for his first goal in European Football.

 

This leaves Celtic at the bottom of the table but only two points behind AthleticoMadridin second with two home games withRennesand theMadridside to come. Therefore despite what has been as a poor start to the group they are still in with a chance to qualify!!
