    Absolutely and totally gutted, sick actually.

    So proud of the team, really feel for them as a match like that is so draining, and to concede in the 94th minute is worse than a boot in the sack.

    Hail Hail!!!

    I never even entertained that notion...Few teams come to play open at the Camp Nou in Champions League and Lennon knew with 4 pts already, there was no reason to gamble

    It was a smart plan that others have tried with varied success but the quality of the defending was quite high from your team...I usually get quite annoyed with deep defending and cynical fouls, time wasting etc. but I left the match with a heavy bit of respect for the quality, the effort and the Celtic squad

    I'm so conflicted right now.

    I feel gutted but I really shouldn't as that was a colossal performance out there tonight.

    To come away from the Nou Camp disappointed in a 2-1 loss is testament to this young vibrant confident and fearless team that Lenny has built.

    We are going to the last 16, at least 5 points from our last three matches (at least one point at home to Barca, at least one point away to Benfica and three points at home to Spartak)

    We are the second best team in this group and we will prove it in the weeks to come.

    What a weird feeling this is, I'm away to get * * and see if that makes any sense of it...

    So proud of the team. As Lenny said we never expected anything here so let's not be too down heartened! We did ourselves proud. Bring on the home leg!!!

    It's hard to lose any game but I can only take positives from that tonight

    I'm not picky.
    I'd just like to think that Messi was pretty quiet tonight because we managed to contain him :icon_mrgreen: Don't go ruining it for me now :smiley-laughing002:

    And the tackle on him in the box by Wilson was as good a tackle as anyone will ever see to be honest. Some people may think that's an exageration, but for me it's the way I see it. He could SO easily have mistimed the tackle, especially with Messi being on the ball, but the guy timed it well and was a superb tackle :50: And I'm praising a guy here that I was slating for much of the season last year, but he has come on in leaps and bounds this year as that tackle proves.

    Should be a good match in two weeks hopefully and a more favourable scoreline for us :icon_mrgreen:

    It's funny if you'd told someone before the game that the final score was going to be 2-1 most us would be pretty happy actually. It's just being so close to drawing 1-1 all with them over there, then letting in that late goal...

    Proud though.

    Weird feeling this, after losing like that, after a performance like that. All I can say is I am proud of the team and we are going places.

    It won't be far off. They don't change their style for anyone, no matter where they play. We will do well to have 30% of the ball.

    Absolutely gutted to lose that way, proud of all the bhoys tonight.
    I have a good feeling about the return leg, think we can cause their defence all sorts of problems.

    I just don't know what to say .. I really don't.

    Juventus in 2001 is the only time I can ever remember feeling as gutted as I do now.

    No one can really grudge Barca' winning the game, but the amount of late 'kicks in the baws' we have had in the champions league is just silly.

    Off the top of my head .. Juve, Anderlecht, Bayern, Milan, Lyon, Aalborg, Benfica .. now Barca' .. it's just so hard to take over and over .. :54:

    They will dominate possession again at Celtic Park easily. We'll just have to be just as good defensively, and even better on the counter attack.
