    Celtic have to keep the momentum up and hopefully take one of these chances. They've also got to keep Rosenborg in their own half.

    Chief sports writer, BBC Scotland at Celtic Park

    "Huge moments these for Celtic's season. Rosenborg should be ahead, no question. Their confidence is growing and Celtic are stuck in a rut and looking vulnerable at the back. They need to find themselves pretty quickly. Jonny Hayes might help.

    "He's on now You could definitely hear a gasp when the ball found its way to Yann-Erik de Lanlay right in front of the Celtic goal - and then an enormous, collective sigh of relief when he scooped it over. A huge, huge let-off."

    A free-kick for Rosenborg in a decent position is whipped in for Nicklas Bendtner to rise... and head over the bar. Goal kick for Celtic and it remains goalless as we approach the hour mark.
