OH GEE, WHAT A FINISH! Rodgers is thrilled as own goal seals Celtic's progress in Champions League

Brendan Rodgers hailed the courage of his players as Celtic stormed into the knock-out stages of the Champions League for the first time in 12 years with a 1-0 win over Young Boys.

They required an own own goal from visiting skipper Loris Benito with four minutes left of an incredibly tense evening, after Adam Idah had forced a save from goalkeeper Marvin Keller.

But it seems increasingly likely they will not have Kyogo Furuhashi for the play-off round or beyond, with reports in France claiming he’s set to join Rennes for £10million.
