At the risk of upsetting those of an unshakeably blue persuasion, last night I watched Celtic put on a remarkably classy performance in Milan, where they were unlucky not to leave with a point. Even the Spanish commentator said so. The difference between the two sides was a late own goal, (they called it a deflection but it was more than that) and a free kick that may have been dodgy, since  Balotelli had been play-acting all night.

We have a habit of rubbishing our own game at every opportunity, but last night we were done proud.
