    Ryan Christie has been really impressive since he came on. His movement has been excellent

    A lovely move involving Scott Brown and Callum McGregor sets up Ryan Christie for a shot but the substitute blazes over.

  4. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 80 mins

    Celtic 3-0 Suduva (4-1)

    Jonny Hayes thinks he's scored just moments after coming on as he tucks in the rebound from yet another Ivan Kardum save but there's an offside flag fluttering in the Glasgow breeze.

    Mikey Johnston can be pleased with his night's work but he might be thinking he should have had a goal as he makes way for Jonny Hayes.

    Suduva keeper Ivan Kardum is keeping the score respectable as he denies Mikey Johnston a first Celtic goal. The teenager has had a few sights of goal tonight.

    Brilliant play from Celtic. That's the best little bit of passing that they've had to create the chance for Ntcham and, again, a tremendous shot from the edge of the box

    Celtic are well on top here, with Suduva wilting. Olivier Ntcham hammers in a shot that the keeper bats away and, soon after, Ryan Christie sends a weak effort just wide.

    Dedryck Boyata’s frame of mind in recent weeks has been questioned but he’s been solid and classy tonight. The Belgian international hasn’t had much to do but he’s shown calm and composure when needed at the centre of Celtic’s defence.

    Ryan Christie is not hanging about as he gets to the byline and gets a good cross in. If Mikey Johnston was a couple of inches taller, it would be 4-0.

    Another change for Celtic, with Emiio Izaguirre taking over from Kieran Tierney.

    There's been a real flow since the second goal. All of a sudden it's like a weight has been lifted off Celtic's shoulders. It's been a while since Celtic were two-up in a game so you can see the confidence growing and growing. It's all positive for Celtic

  12. A good night for Griffithspublished at 64 mins

    Celtic 3-0 Suduva (4-1)

    A warm round of applause for Leigh Griffiths as he goes off to be replaced by Ryan Christie.

    The departing striker is the first Celtic player to bag 100 goals for the club since John Hartson reached that mark in 2005.

    Is Brendan Rodgers keeping him fresh for the Rangers game on Sunday? With doubts over Moussa Dembele and Odsonne Edouard, that has to be a smart move.

    Kristoffer Ajer

    It's a first Celtic goal for Norwegian defender Kristoffer Ajer as he gets his head to a deep cross from Leigh Griffiths and the ball creeps in at the far the post as the goalkeeper is distracted by a Scott Sinclair run across his bows.

    Celtic 2-0 Suduva (3-1)

    The fans are on their feet as Kieran Tierney hammers in a shot from 20 yards but goalkeeper Ivan Kardum makes an impressive stop and Leigh Griffiths can't mop up the loose ball as a defender gets in a well-timed challenge.

    A move started and finished by a man who hasn’t put a foot wrong all night. Callum McGregor makes Celtic tick these days and that should wrap up progression.

    More good work from Callum McGregor down the left and he cuts the ball into the path of Leigh Griffiths but the striker can't control his shot and the ball slides wide of the target.

    Callum McGregor

    He likes a European goal this lad... Leigh Griffiths holds it up and slips in Scott Sinclair, who finds Callum McGregor inside the box and the midfielder strokes the ball low into the corner.

    Here's a familiar sight, Scott Sinclair cutting in from the left and taking aim for the far corner. The winger doesn't catch it properly though and the ball flies high and wide.

    Celtic's Olivier Ntcham has another pop from distance and the keeper is scrambling as the shot screams just over the top.

    It looks like the Lithuanian visitors have changed to a back four as they chase an equaliser. That should leave a few more gaps for Celtic to exploit.
