Champions League Results and fixtures

Celtic will face Estonian side Nomme Kalju in the Champions League second qualifying round after an ultimately straightforward win over FK Sarajevo.

Leading 3-1 from last week’s first leg in Bosnia, the Scottish champions had an early scare when Mersudin Ahmetovic had an effort ruled out for offside.

However, Celtic went ahead through Ryan Christie’s smart finish and, although Benjamin Tatar equalised, Callum McGregor’s fine finish from distance restored the three-goal cushion and secured a 5-2 aggregate victory.

Celtic will host the first leg next Wednesday against Nomme Kalju, who surprised Macedonian champions Shkendija to progress on away goals.
