CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUALIFER ROUND 2 LEG 1
CELTIC 5-0 NOMME KALJU
CHRISTEA CAPATALISES
 Celtic created chances from the off. Simunovic had two sights of goal from early corners and the visiting goalkeeper made an unorthodox stop from Christie's swerving strike.
Odsonne Edouard twice came close and Scott Brown forced a good save before the breakthrough came in the 36th minute when Ajer headed Christie's near-post free-kick in off the bar.
Christie won a 44th-minute penalty when Reginald Mbu Alidor handled as he flicked the ball into the box, and the former Inverness man sent the keeper the wrong way.
Griffiths had a shot diverted wide before finding the top corner with a curling effort, then punching the corner flag and sinking to his knees in celebration.
The second half was a procession of Celtic chances. Christie and James Forrest both had two strikes saved and Johnston also threatened twice before Christie curled home his second from 18 yards in the 65th minute
MY OPINION
Celtic should use the second leg to see if there is anyone in their reserves or academy worth a real shot and this is deffin8itely a chance to blood a few youngsters. I think that this shows what the Scottish champions can do but they should be able to do more of this in their own league
DUNDALK 1-1 QUARABAG
HAPPY HORBON
A cheap corner given away from Dundalk and the ball is swung in. Emrell rises highest and heads downward, past Rogers and into the net.
McGrath’s effort was deflected wide and Murray’s delivery from the corner drops to Hoban in the six-yard box.
MY OPINION
This game is definitely still in the balance but the Irish side have shown in recent seasons that they can score the important away goal in Europe which they now need to do right now. I am not that sure at this stage about anything but that there will be attacking momentum from both sides in the second leg
