Bhoys bank on Marshall

MARTIN O'NEILL last night gave rookie goalkeeper David Marshall a huge vote of confidence on the eve of the biggest night of his life.

The 19-year-old faces the daunting prospect of trying to silence a hostile 90,000-plus Nou Camp crowd and keep Ronaldinho and his Barcelona team-mates quiet.

But the Celtic manager will be hoping the teenager is as relaxed as he was as he laughed and joked at last night's pre-match press conference.
