The former Liverpool defender was culpable for both the visitors' goals as his side slumped at Parkhead

Borussia Monchengladbach revived their hopes of progression from Champions League Group C with a deserved 2-0 win over Celtic in Glasgow on a night to forget for defender Kolo Toure.

Gladbach were the stronger team in a goalless first half and took the lead shortly before the hour mark when captain Lars Stindl struck after a defensive error from Toure.

Celtic did not have the same cutting edge as the visitors and failed to create a clear opportunity for an equaliser in the closing stages before another dreadful Toure mistake saw him lose possession, allowing Andre Hahn to seal the victory.
