Once again Celtic Park was the viewing centre of Europe as the famous Glasgow arena breathed life into the Europa League for the visit of Zenit St Petersburg.

Having brought Inter Milan over three years ago Roberto Mancini had a fair idea of what to expect but Brendan Rodgers was a smarter opponent than Ronny Deila.

Zenit have spent more than £100m assembling their squad but were thankfully short of the excellence shown by Bayern Munich and Paris Saint Germain in the autumn.

Without a full team through injury Celtic found something special, adapted away from their favoured formation and pinned the Russian’s back for long periods.

James Forrest was picked out for some special treatment but with Kieran Tierney flying down the left there was a balance to the way that Celtic pressed Zenit back.

The chemistry was right on and off the park, the tactics and substitutions perfect- when Callum McGregor’s shot hit the back of the net another chapter in the legend of Celtic Park was signed off.
