Matt O'Riley admits it almost felt like Celtic had WON against Real Madrid after the incredible reception they received at full-time.
Ange Postecoglou's men went down 3-0 to the reigning Champions League holders on their big return to the top table as they went toe-to-toe with Los Blancos. Callum McGregor rattled the post while Liel Abada and Daizen Maeda both missed huge chances with the scoreline level before the Spanish giants upped their game in the second period.
Vinicus JR, Luka Modric and Eden Hazard grabbed the goals for the visitors as they showed their class to put the game beyond the Scottish champions - who stuck by their principals under the Aussie boss and continued to attack and attack - much to the delight of the home support who made Parkhead a cauldron of noise from start to finish. Denmark Under-21 star O'Riley - who has had the likes of Manchester United linked with him in recent times - has hailed the 'unbelievable' reception from the home support and says the attacking display shows they can compete at Europe's elite level as they bid to put in big performances against RB Leipzig and Shakhtar Donetsk.
