David Turnbull insists Celtic are out to write another piece of magical Parkhead history against Real Madrid.
Ange Postecoglou’s troops are gearing up for the Champions League cracker against the champions of Europe. Turnbull's team could not be in better shape ahead of the Group F opener having demolished Rangers 4-0 to establish a five-point lead at the top of the Premiership. Attention switched to the continental test after the Old Firm rout and the visit of the Spanish superclub.
Postecoglou’s men face a mammoth task against Carlo Ancelotti’s side but the Italian’s Milan team were defending European champions 15 years ago just as Real are at the moment when they fell in Glasgow’s east end. Celtic beat Real on home soil in 1980 and, 10 years ago, they defeated a brilliant Barcelona side that included Lionel Messi on an evening fans still fondly cherish.
