‘Probably a good result’ was Chris Sutton’s verdict after Celtic’s 1-1 draw away to Copenhagen.
Before the match it was a scoreline that Neil Lennon would have accepted, after a first half dominating play it looked like Celtic could have had the tie done and dusted.
In the first ten minute Karl-Johan Johnsson twice blocked impressively from Odsonne Edouard but in the 14th minute the Frenchman made the breakthrough after a break down the right saw play switched across the 18 yard line before the Frenchman dinked the ball over the onrushing keeper and inside the post.
1-1…Probably a good result in Denmark… important away goal… missed opportunities but Forster stunning penalty save to keep it 1-1… Jullien outstanding once again on the big stage…

From the first minute of the second half the Danes looked a different side with Dame N’Doye equalising in the 52nd minute.
Celtic were under pressure but created a couple of chances on the break with Johnsson saving at point blank range from Edouard.
In the 79th minute Copenhagen were awarded a VAR penalty for handball against Ryan Christie but Fraser Forster came to the rescue touching Jens Stage’s penalty onto the post.
It’s that man again! ?
A 25th goal of the season for Odsonne Edouard!
