Celtic 1-2 Bayern Munich: Player ratings as Kane goal decides tight knockout play-off first leg
Publish : Wednesday, 2025-02-12 ( Europe/London )
Player ratings from the Champions League knockout play-off first leg between Celtic and Bayern Munich.
Bayern Munich hold a slender 2-1 aggregate lead over Celtic following the first leg of their Champions League knockout play-off in Glasgow on Wednesday night.
Bayern will be firm favourites to progress when the side reconvene in Germany for the second leg next week, but it would have been a more comfortable lead to take home had Daizen Maeda not pulled a goal back for Celtic towards the end of this game.
Bayern dominated the early stages of the contest at Parkhead and eventually reaped the benefit when Michael Olise fired into the top corner from the edge of the box on the stroke of half-time.
Maeda’s close-range header from a corner symbolised a strong finish from Celtic, who actually came out on top over Bayern in the xG stakes, suggesting they could have had more from the game.
