Real Madrid salvaged a 1-1 draw against Shakhtar Donetsk - and it is a result the Hoops will be welcoming with open arms with how things panned out.
The Ukrainian heavyweights have fought valiantly with their Champions League Group F clash on matchday four amid Russia's invasion of their country ramping up with attacks in recent days. They provided themselves a huge boost in the match against this year's tournament winners by getting ahead through a goal by Oleksandr Zubkov just after half-time.
It's a result that has looked to have major ramifications for Celtic and their hopes of playing European football beyond Christmas. Ange Postecoglou's side live to fight another day on that front though after Antonio Rudiger scored a 95th minute leveller for manager Carlo Ancelotti to ensure that they are now through to the last 16. Shakhtar are third on five points with Leipzig now in second a point above.
