​Celtic falter in Champions League quest after goalless draw with Rosenborg

Celtic failed to claim victory in their Champions League qualifiers first leg encounter against Rosenborg on Wednesday.

The Bhoys lined up against Rosenborg at Parkhead without a recognized striker due to various injuries and suspension, and as a result, the Hoops struggled in front of goal – managing only a 0-0 draw.

It was actually Rosenborg who created the best chances on the night and Celtic will have to thank goalkeeper Craig Gordon for helping the Hoops avoid a concession of an away goal.

Celtic will now be travelling to the Lerkendal Stadion next week and will have to perform much better in attack in order to be able to seal a place in the next round of the qualifiers.
