Celtic fans reacted with delight on Twitter as the hoops beat Anderlecht 3-0 in Brussels.
It was a dream night for the fans as they watched their heroes extend their unbeaten away record in the Champions League to over a year.
Last season Brendan Rodgers’ side drew away to Borussia Monchengladbach and Manchester City and took that form into tonight’s match.
Imagine what the score would have been if we’d been on form.

After a nervy start to the game when they struggled to complete simple passes the game swung Celtic’s way in the 38th minute.
Olivier Ntcham sent Kieran Tierney free down the left with his low precision cross met at the far post by Leigh Griffiths who made no mistake from six yards out.
Five minutes into the second half Patrick Roberts cut into the penalty box with another low shot deflected past the keeper by a home defender.
There were other chances to score but it wasn’t until the final minute of the match that Scott Sinclair scored a glorious third.
It was the first Champions League goals for Griffiths and Sinclair and sets Celtic up perfectly for the double header with Bayern Munich.
