Celtic are through to the play-offs for the Champions League group stage, but they didn't exactly make it easy on themselves.

Penalty kicks in each half from Leigh Griffiths and Moussa Dembele saw Celtic score a 2-1 victory over Astanaon the night (3-2 agg), but for a long period of the game it was squeaky bum time for the Hoops. It was looking a bit grim for Celtic when Craig Gordon's poor clearance fell kindly for Agim Ibraimi, who proceeded to lob the shot-stopper from 40 yards out. Here's the goal captured using some sort of potato, possibly a Maris Piper. https://twitter.com/ByTheMinCeltic/status/760930041291243520 However, the goal came just over a minute after new boy Kolo Toure entered the fray, which sparked an endless slew of the obvious joke which quickly became hackneyed on social media. https://twitter.com/RangersFCReady/status/760930491981848577 https://twitter.com/connor_forsyth/status/760931469892153345 https://twitter.com/Kyle_Fingers/status/760931740038889473 https://twitter.com/ShaneMorrison19/status/760937524856487937 https://twitter.com/RogerJamie/status/760936482836283396 https://twitter.com/StevenLDN/status/760935728486424576 Ok, ok, you get the idea. Fortunately for Celtic, they managed to avoid extra-time in the 11th hour of the game courtesy of a spot-kick from Moussa Dembele following Igor Shitov's sending off. https://twitter.com/Eqoze/status/760945014352609280?lang=en Listen to our GAA podcast with Colm Parkinson.
