O’Neill fears for Bhoys’ Champions League hopes

MARTIN O’NEILL fears Celtic’s Champions League aspirations could be dead and buried by the time they return home to face Shakhtar Donetsk at Parkhead on November 2.

The Scottish champions crashed to a 3-1 defeat at home to Barcelona on Tuesday night to leave them joint- bottom of Group F after one game.

It is not unusual for Celtic to start their group campaign with defeat. They experienced it against Bayern Munich last season and Juventus two seasons before that.
