Celtic party in Paradise

Celtic 3 Shakhter Karagandy 0 (Celtic win 3-2 on agg.)

The Hoops were trailing 2-0 to the Kazakhstan champions from the trip to Astana, but they treated their fans to a great European night in the east end of Glasgow.

Shakhter keeper Aleksandr Mokin made a series of good saves during the expected early onslaught but in the first of two added minutes at the end of the first-half, Kris Commons thundered in a left-footed drive from 25 yards to give the home side the lead.
