Remember those games really well. Thought Liverpool were def going to go through bec our record at Anfield was great. And then Celtic came and produced a very strong display. Well done to them theyve always been my second team.
When Liverpool went through in prior tie, on away goals, Celtic demolished Liverpool. Just couldn't score at Anfield. That McManaman goal was so vital but stoppable (Stunning goal but someone could've fouled him along the way}. My point here is that 9/10 British ties., Celtic turn up, yet we're a pub team. One that beats Leeds, Liverpool, Blackburn and Man United. Guitdiola can't beat us. Does my head in .
That was one of Celtic's greatest ever European results. When Martin O'Neill was in charge Celtic knocked teams like Ajax, Liverpool and Barcelona out of Europe. Celtic had a great team then and were good enough to beat a Liverpool team with Michael Owen and Steven Gerrard in it.
The referee that day was Dr Markus Merk from Germany. I had the opportunity to chat to him a few years ago and during our conversation I asked him what his favourite memory was during his long career. He said it was this game. Toward the end of the game the result was clear. Liverpool needed three goals to win (away goals rule back then) and there was only around 2 minutes of added time to go. However both sets of fans were singing YNWA at the top of their voices. He played an extra 6 minutes of added time, just so they could sing on. Incredible person.
I remember that too mate that's the reason rangers signed him and that's where 'the broony' celebration spawned from. Google that one. Hailhhail brother.
That rocket from Hartson is one of the many goals I have etched in my brain knowing where I was, who with and what it meant to me at the time - genuinely thought we had a 50/50 chance for the final but more optimistic than realistic despite MON turning them into a team capable of beating anyone if they clicked on the day EG Juventus 4-3 in my top 5 games attended easily what a night that was
real solid game of footie, no bollocking around from both Teams and a time when footballers got stuck right in. Im a Celtic man and a Liverpool man second.
Both Rangers and Celtic had teams that could have competed at the top of the prem back then, and teams like dundee, hearts and Hibs were signing very good players it was a good few years until the tv deal fell through
The noughties were a good decade. Celtic and Rangers went on extended European runs and both reached finals then. Hell even Aberdeen got a draw with Bayern Munich after Christmas in 2007-8.
Cannot argue that I have never heard such a subdued tone from Barry Davies. As a commentator he was loud but untechnical about a match. For his BBC pension he should have been switched to hang and dry out on 'Gardener's Question Time'. Just about his limit. But hey, this is old Auntie Beeb, they know best. Who takes them serious apart from I....dunno.
@@DeezN1892 The thing is, when Celtic won the Semi Final against Boavista, ITN News' headline was Beckham signing for Real Madrid.They didn't even mention Celtic. It was a huge achievement, considering we knocked out 2 of England's leading clubs. It'd be no different today, otherwise I wouldn't bother mentioning it.
Andrew Mullin boavista in the semi finals of the europa league vs footballs biggest celebrity moving to the worlds biggest club? I’m not surprised tbh. Nothing even against Celtic just it’s a bit of a Mickey Mouse event compared to that event
@@DeezN1892 I don't understand the English mentality on the UEFA cup, or Europa League. It's European football. In the nicest way, if an English sport team or individual achieve something in any sport, honestly, we never hear the end of it. I understand Beckham's hype, but really, everyone knew it was happening, long before that night. No one really thought Celtic would get to a euro final. We support and acknowledge your football achievements in Europe. It'd be nice if you did the same.
It's hard to remember the time when Scottish teams could compete with English teams if only on the rare occasion. I don't think Celtic would "get much change" out of today's Liverpool nor any of the top half of the Premier League.
@@michaelkelly4280 And Newport Co beat Leicester City in the cup last year but no-one is suggesting Newport are on a par with Leicester. The current Celtic team would struggle to compete in the Premier League
Are you mentally ok 😂. The worst football song is simply the best when they are simply not. Getting pumped by every team 4-0 3-0 7-1 then struggled to beat Motherwell 2-1😂
Somewhere there is a video of Parkhead, the Macmanaman game. It’s one where you don’t hear much of the old fart singing. Everyone is singing never walk alone! It’s spine tingling! Listen to Wales before beating England 30 3. At rugby. You are probably a Manc, fair play to you, but don’t slag the song. The SBS version of the team lined up at the Kop end after doing Barca 4 0. That’s precious.

Opposite for me Liverpool my first team Celtic my second, if I’m being honest I was gutted when you lost the final
commentator pretty much crying at the end :)
Love celtic love Liverpool and every player on the park at this moment where top class, thanks for the memories
@@michaelunderhill8847 they’re fooled because they both sing the same songs, their tradition and history is the complete opposite of each other…
Two clubs who bathe in a dirty bath of victimhood
Wonderful to hear the astonishment on the English commentators voices when both screamers went in still one of my favorite moment as a Celt
He wasn't noted for his impartiality, was Barry Davies!
"Celtic are surely in the semi final". Said with such deadpan lowkey grudging acceptance.

Great second leg by Celtic. Just a shame they couldn't do it in the final in Seville.
I was to young to appreciate this team under O’Neil but even I know we can’t compare Ange’s team our current squad ain’t even close to this yet 🍀
Back when the Scottish teams could compete at a high level
What a fucking team. Bring back these days!

Henrik?

That should not be Liverpool v Celtic, it should be Celtic v Liverpool as Celtic are the home team, so Celtic come first.
