The first leg in Spain ended 4-2 to Valencia.
Transcript
00:00Celtic kickoff and the man kicking the ball just then was Bobby Craig, signed this afternoon.
00:06Reported fee of 15,000 pounds, he beat the deadline by only half an hour, he stepped off the train
00:10in Glasgow.
00:12The Celtic team showing several changes, I'll just go over it.
00:16Haffey, McKay and O'Neill, Crerand, McNamee and Clarke, Chalmers, Craig, Devers, Gallacher and Byrne.
00:24The tongue-twisting Valencia team shows three changes from the one which won 4-2 against Celtic in spin.
00:31That was Feature, the left winger.
00:35Easy to distinguish the Spaniards because they're playing in white shots and black pants.
00:39Weigos, Chalmers for Celtic.
00:46Byrne.
00:50Fitting the tackle of Verdun there, the ball coming, spitting off Zamora, the goalkeeper.
00:59Guilla, the inside left.
01:03There's Roberto.
01:10Feature.
01:20Feature coming up there, the ball goes out of play, so the throw is to Valencia.
01:26From there by Chiqua.
01:30Inside left, Guillaume.
01:37Celtic edging the ball back there to O'Neill.
01:42Piquet, lunging it forward.
01:44Here comes Guillaume with a tremendous chance.
01:48Cleared away on the line there by Mackay.
01:51Well, what a chance that was for the Valencia inside left.
01:55Incidentally, I think you look at it as a striking resemblance to De Stefano.
02:00Some take in the corner.
02:11Cuellen.
02:19Clark, trying to get it through there to Craig, but it was cut away by Pequere.
02:25As the center forward wilded over, the ball is cleared away by O'Neill.
02:30Coming off for a Bellios.
02:34Byrne.
02:42Waldo, trying to impede Byrne just then.
02:51O'Neill going to take the free kick.
02:58Pequere heading into a flick on by Gallagher.
03:00What a chance here for Divers.
03:02Appealless for a penalty kick.
03:04The referee is going to give it.
03:10While the referee had no hesitation at all there, he's being surrounded now, as you can see, by astonished.
03:15The goalkeeper Zamoro in the middle, telling them to get away.
03:22Divers pull down there on the six-yard line.
03:26Almost the whole Spanish team, six or seven, surrounding the referee.
03:30There you can see Zamoro in the gray shot in the middle, telling them all to get back.
03:43Well, this is quite an astonishing scene by a team who, before the match, had said this would be oh
03:48so friendly.
03:5218 minutes played, a wonderful chance for Celtic to go one up.
03:56Pull back this two-goal deficit from the first match.
04:06Car takes it, and oh dear, he misses.
04:10This has become a Celtic speciality.
04:12Notice that the Chico, the Valencia left-back, went across there and gave the Celtic man a big, long hug.
04:19And then, in the middle of the first match, it's been a big, long hug.
04:22Crudon.
04:24Feature racing to challenge there, but it goes to Chalmers.
04:30Chiquin.
04:31It topples, but Chalmers edges the ball away.
04:37Berdu, again, pushes the ball out, very happy to can see the corner.
04:44Across from Bernd, the low one.
04:47Rekamon.
04:49Craig whining in there like a little terrier.
04:53Feature.
04:56Craig has a tremendous shot, and a very glorious-looking save by Zamora.
05:04Rekamon.
05:06Feature.
05:08Rebellious there, right-winger, is it outside left?
05:13Sweating it to Roberto.
05:16And just as the final whistle goes, the ball is slammed into the net, a very controversial decision, but the
05:23referee's whistle is already gone.
05:24Roberto is claiming that he has scored, but the referee says no.
05:29Valencia kicking off in the second half.
05:32The score, nothing at all.
05:36Valencia, incidentally, are the fourth-top team in the Spanish league at the moment, but possibly at the moment, not
05:42quite playing to top form.
05:45Well, we'll see what happens in the second half.
05:47Roberto edging the ball out of play.
05:53Referee, Mr. Rimmer, coming up to get a free kick.
06:03He's lecturing out Byrne, taking it for Celtic.
06:09Chiqua heads it out, the goalkeeper came out there very uncertain-looking, but the full-back nodded out, so we
06:14have a corner to Celtic.
06:23Charmer's taking it.
06:27Ferrand heads it firmly in, and Chiqua heads it off from the goal line.
06:33We are the inside left going through, there's Ferrand again.
06:39Ferrand.
06:40Rebellious, headed by Clark.
06:43Locked down field by Piquet.
06:53Very good tackle indeed, Ferrand.
06:56Tackle there by Mackay.
06:58Ferrand.
07:05Piquet edges the ball out of play, so we have a second corner to Celtic.
07:12An almighty roar coming from the power of the terracing behind the Valencia goal.
07:22The ball spins into the goal.
07:27Look at Ferrand, leaping into the air there.
07:30A flick off one of the defenders.
07:33Verdu, I think, stretched out there in the penalty box, but everyone is up to congratulate Ferrand.
07:42Valencia on the tight cross to Guillaume, and he scores.
07:50Well, there's almost dead silence in the terracing.
07:52No wonder, because this was a sudden spot right out of the defense into attack.
07:58Guillaume in a very open position.
08:00Scored very, very easily.
08:0220 minutes gone in the second half.
08:04Valencia make it 1-0, so Celtic again trailed by two goals.
08:12Celtic audience here at Parkhead have gone strangely almost hushed.
08:19Mike Dimeen touching it back.
08:25O'Neill.
08:27Crerrand.
08:34Pequay, Chester doing this.
08:36Craig.
08:36Gallica.
08:46Chiqua.
08:49Rebellious.
08:50Fecha.
08:56Wier.
08:58Waldo.
09:00Promising attack building up.
09:03Waldo a tremendous shot with his left foot.
09:06What a beautiful goal.
09:10while the Valencia center-forward Waldo from Brazil shot really shot Valencia
09:16into 2-1 lead what a magnificent goal
09:25Chiqua, Ferran to Craig, while can Celtic pull this out of the fire it'd be
09:31something truly remarkable if they do, they're tasked now, Luke's hopeless
09:40Craig touching away to the wing to Kerran, Chiqua beside him, Kerran
09:47sweating away from him, Chalmers, Chalmers still with the ball, Kerran
09:56a magnificent goal by Kerran, look at Chalmers, Gallagher jumping up and giving Kerran one long mighty hug
10:04well, if any man ever watched for a goal, it's the Celtic man
