Thompson strikes to revive Celtic’s Euro dream

Celtic 1 Shaktar Donetsk 0

Nobody seemed to know why referee French referee Eric Poulat penalised Donetsk goalkeeper Jan Lastuvka in the first half, awarding Celtic a free-kick just inside the area.

But Alan Thompson took advantage of that by slamming home Stilian Petrov’s ball for the winner which kept them in the hunt for at least a UEFA Cup place.
