Celtic get their first meaningful glimpse of goal as Patryk Klimala cuts in from the left and takes aim for the far corner. Goalkeeper Mike Maignan has to look lively to push it away.

Yusuf Yazici clips a curling free kick over the top of the Celtic defensive wall and it whizzes a couple of feet over the crossbar.

The visitors are starting to take a grip of things, moving the ball with more purpose and menace.

Still no goalmouth action to report.

Celtic 0-0 Lille

Concern for Celtic as Jeremie Frimpong clatters into the hoardings at the side of the pitch. He looks a bit dazed but should be fine to continue.

As the rain tumbles down, David Turnbull strides forward and decides to have a go from distance but his shot flies well wide of the target.

The visitors are certainly throwing men forward in numbers whenever they get into the Celtic half but most of the early play is breaking down in a congested midfield.

And away we go.

Speaking to BT Celtic manager Neil Lennon, says: "Lille are a good side, they use the 4-4-2 very well. The two strikers work well together and their wide players cut in with the full-backs coming round too. They're an all round very good side but we're looking forward to a challenge.

"We just want to get a performance and result that we deserve. I thought we were really good in the San Siro but didn't get the result. I've been saying that for a while but actions speak louder than words."

Celtic's poor run in Europe started with a 2-1 home defeat to Ferencvaros in the second round of Champions League qualifying.

AC Milan won 3-1 in Glasgow and Sparta Prague scored four.

Celtic have lost three consecutive home matches in Europe before but have never lost four in a row.

Celtic picked up their only point in five group outings thanks to a brace of great goals from Mohamed Elyounoussi at the Stade Pierre Mauroy.

Neil Lennon's side were 2-0 up after 32 minutes and Scott Bain kept out a Jonathan David penalty before the interval.

However, Lille came roaring back to dominate the second half and levelled through Zeki Celik and Jonathan Ikone.

Europa League Group H makes depressing reading for Celtic, who prop up the table with just one point.

Lille and AC Milan are already through but top spot is yet to be decided, with just one point separating those two.

The Serie A leaders are away to Sparta Prague this evening.

Lille are unbeaten in the group and have convincingly won both away trips with a 4-1 rout of Sparta followed by stunning 3-0 triumph at the San Siro.

Benfica were held to a 2-2 draw at Standard Liege, so Rangers end up two points clear of the Lisbon giants.

Not bad for a team that was in the third pot of seeds.

Some fringe players were given a chance tonight and all did their chances of more action no harm.
