Glasgow Celtic Champions 🍀












🎉 CELTIC🍀 HAVE DONE IT! 🏴 SCOTLAND WILL HAVE TWO TEAMS IN THE KNOCKOUT STAGES OF EUROPEAN FOOTBALL! 3⃣ This is only the 3rd time this has happened in the last 15 years! ▶️ Excluding "dropdowns" - it's the first time since December 2019 that two Scottish teams have progressed! 3⃣ It's the first time since 2006/07, and only the second time in the entire group stage era that two Scottish teams have won 3+ group stage matches in the same season! 💰 The win adds 0.4 coefficient points to Scotland's total, and €2.1million to Celtic's total. In addition to this, it's worth at least an extra €4.5m to Celtic in prizemoney for finishing at least 24th (TBC based on final league position). They have now earned over €45million in UEFA prizemoney this season, before ticket sales. ⏭️ The 'seeded' teams are those that finish 9th-16th; these teams get the second leg at home. Celtic would need at least a point to finish 16th. If they are below 16th, they are 'unseeded' and at home on 11th or 12th of Feb & away on the 18th or 19th Feb ⚖️ As it stands, Celtic in 18th would be drawn next Friday to play against either 15th (Bayern Munich) or 16th (Real Madrid) in the knockout round, followed by 1st (Liverpool) or 2nd (Barcelona) in the last 16. The draw is next Friday the 31st at 11am. 🔵 Good luck to Rangers tomorrow at Old Trafford on TNT Sports 1 at 8pm. A point keeps alive the Gers' hopes of finishing in the top 8 of the Europa League and skipping the knockout round to go straight to the last 16!
