RB Leipzig make Celtic may the price for missed chances (RTE.ie)

Celtic's hopes of Champions League progression ended on Tuesday night after RB Leipzig hit two late goals at Parkhead. Former Chelsea forward Timo Werner ...

Andre Silva got to the bye-line and cut it back for Werner to head home. The Japan attacker was having a frustrating night with the ball though and steered a first-time effort wide. Leipzig were enjoying the better of the second-half chances. Greg Taylor and Sead Haksabanovic caused some panic with balls in from the left and Jenz then headed over the latter’s corner. Leipzig finished the half well. Leipzig had a major let-off when O’Riley hit the post from 25 yards following a short corner and Taylor scuffed the rebound off the crossbar before Maeda headed wide.

Celtic out of Champions League as Timo Werner leads RB Leipzig win (The Guardian)

Celtic cannot reach the last 16 of the Champions League after Timo Werner and Emil Forsberg guided Leipzig to a 2-0 win in Glasgow.

O’Riley blasted a shot which stung the palms of Janis Blaswich. The arrival of Giorgos Giakoumakis suggested a more direct approach. Hart breathed a sigh of relief after VAR adjudged he had not upended Nkunku inside the penalty area. Leipzig almost rubbed salt in the wound; Joe Hart produced a fine save to deny the Chelsea-bound Christopher Nkunku. “It’s the hardest part of the game. News that Shakhtar Donetsk had taken the lead against Real Madrid seemed to fuel the atmosphere. Szoboszlai almost piled on the agony. Leipzig spent the opening stages trying to expose Celtic’s forward-thinking instincts. Hart smothered the centre-back’s low drive. The sense of a rollercoaster ride was endorsed within seconds of kick-off, as Daizen Maeda flicked Reo Hatate’s cross narrowly over the bar. The substitute Emil Forsberg added gloss to Leipzig’s win. Celtic continue to learn only harsh lessons against a higher standard of opponent than they ever encounter at home.

Celtic's Euro improvement 'can't be fast-tracked' (BBC News)

Celtic are "very close to becoming a really good team" at Champions League level despite their chastening early exit, says manager Ange Postecoglou.

"The more they have exposure at this level, the better equipped we'll be going forward." "The players are giving the manager everything. They will hope Real Madrid - having secured qualification with a late draw away to Shakhtar - will treat that final fixture as an irrelevance. "The experience can hopefully get your players to feel more comfortable in those situations, and we've been unlucky too. "Once again they went toe-to-toe with a good team," Collins told BBC Sportsound. They're doing a lot of things right. "At crucial times, they could have scored a lot of goals. "It's about quality. "That process cant be fast-tracked just because I want it to happen. "It's not just as simple as 'take your opportunities'. I think we're very close to becoming a really good team at this level.
