There were chances aplenty for Celtic, but they couldn't take them in order to keep their Champions League dreams alive.
Ange Postecoglou' s side needed a result against RB Leipzig to retain any hope of making it out of Group F and into the knock-out stages. They will be wondering how they didn't go in ahead at the break after hitting the woodwork twice. Matt O'Riley saw his effort come back off the near post before Greg Taylor stretched to try and turn the rebound on, only to see his header hit the crossbar.
Without resorting to stereotype, it was the German's who proved efficiently clinical on the night, taking their two big second half opportunities with aplomb. Timo Werner's timing and accuracy was on point as the former Chelsea man arrived in the box to guide home a clever header to put the Bundesliga side in front with 15 minutes left. And Emil Forsberg proved just as deadly, slamming into the top corner to put any hopes of qualification beyond the Hoops.
