It was a decade ago this week Red Bull pulled one of their biggest PR stunts when they sent a daredevil up to the heavens in a hot air balloon to do a skydive from space.
The rocket fuel fizzy drink manufacturers sponsored Felix Baumgartner’s record breaking leap and Celtic found out again it turns out the football team they fund can also hit the heights at the right times. The Parkhead men’s sense of vertigo in the final third yet again hurt them and the brutal fact is there’s been a failure to launch in this Champions League campaign.
RB Leipzig were not out of this world in Glasgow. They didn’t have to be, even if they did step up in the second half for the second week in a row. It should have been lift-off but once more Celtic couldn’t handle the atmospheric pressure in front of goal.
