Van Dijk struggled to remember the game but that is likely because he’s purged it from his memory after a late collapse in Warsaw saw Ronny Deila’s ten men Celtic return to Murrayfield trailing 4-1. Despite officially winning 3-0 on the return leg, Warsaw continue to claim that they won 2-0.
The ex-Legia winger scored and assisted in both legs but was helpless as Warsaw weee punished by UEFA after fielding an ineligible player. The appearance by Miroslav Radovic offered a lacklustre Celtic a reprieve but they did not capitalise and were beaten by Maribor in the Playoff round.
