After two nights of routine fare in the Champions League Celtic brought some European drama to the viewers of BT Sport.

Celtic Park was full and rocking from long before the first whistle with the hoops racing out the blocks but perhaps being too frantic as they chased the opening goal.

Ryan Christie struck the woodwork late in the first half but just before half time Lazio broke at lightening speak to open the scoring through Manuel Lazzari.

At the start of the second half Lazio looked more likely to add to their lead but when Fraser Forster pulled off a point blank save the momentum switched to Celtic.

Ryan Christie equalised in the 66th minute then planted an 88th minute corner onto Christpher Jullien’s head with the Frenchman heading home with confidence.

There was still time for Lazio to create chances, Forster had another incredible save before the final whistle blew with the final whistle greeted with delight by the side with seven points from three matches in Group E.
