Celtic given UEFA punishment

CELTIC have been given an ‘improper conduct’ fine from UEFA as a result of picking up yellow cards in the 2-2 draw away to Lille. A seven thousand (7000) euro fine has been given to the Scottish Champions as a result of Scott Bain, Diego Laxalt, Moi Elyounoussi, Olivier Ntcham and Albian Ajeti all being booked and now UEFA have decided to charge Neil Lennon’s side under Article 15(4) of the governing body’s rules, stating that the Celtic players were guilty of ‘improper conduct’.

The Europa League has been a forgettable experience for Celtic this year, losing twice at home with an aggregate score of 7-2. Being beaten twice at home and sitting bottom of Group H, despite being the top seed.

Celtic need to address their form in Europe and salvage some pride. It is unlikely that results will go our way to result in qualification but stranger things have happened. Celtic need to get the results and hope that things go their way. Although, most supporters are only caring about the results in domestic football.
