Celtic have been taking part in the Champions League for years... now they are competing in it

Daily Mail  

The final denouement of Celtic’s Champions League campaign evoked an extraordinary mixture of pride and regret among players and supporters alike. Celtic defender Auston Trusty keeps an eye on Bayern striker Harry Kane Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers retrieves the ball at the Allianz Arena Given little chance by most neutrals of downing the Bavarian giants in their own back yard, Celtic delivered a performance of true substance which spoke to their evolution throughout this tournament. For all Bayern had their moments, like when Kasper Schmeichel had to readjust his body to prevent Harry Kane’s deflected strike from beating him, Celtic were not routinely cut open. Nicolas Kuhn beats Manuel Neuer but his shot was cleared off the line Schmeichel’s save to deny Leon Goretzka at the outset of the second half ensured the aggregate deficit remained just one.
