Aaron Mooy living the Celtic dream as he admits he's waited all his life for Champions League goosebumps

Aaron Mooy admits it’s been worth waiting all of his 32 years to finally savour the spine tingling atmosphere of the Champions League.

The Aussie is loving life at Europe’s top table as Ange Postecoglou’ s team go head to head with the elite. Mooy always dreamed about taking part in this continent’s biggest club show. Hearing the tournament anthem blasting out before games, the midfielder imagined being out there and taking in the sound as a participant one day. Now that day has come. Mooy is now living that dream with Celtic in Group F and he is cherishing the opportunity.

Surrounded by younger colleagues within Postecolgou’s set-up, it has taken the international a bit longer to get there than some of his team-mates. But that’s just making it all the more special as he said: “Yeah, it’s amazing. I’m loving it. Every time they play the song. I always dreamed of hearing that music when I was playing. Even when I am coming on in the matches, it’s still an amazing feeling.
