Craig Brown, at Celtic Park for BBC Radio 5 live

"Samaras was pushed without doubt. That was a clear push in the area. Initially I thought it might have been a soft award but on replay I have to say it would have been a free-kick anywhere else on the pitch. It was a recklessly conceded penalty and it was fired into the roof of the net. A great goal for Celtic, relief for Celtic, and joy for Celtic!"

[Walter Cronc]

Samaras' best move all evening! 

Samaras has been alright I thought. Held it up rightly!

[Main Street]

A stonewall penalty, needlessly conceded. But thank you very much all the same.

Result - Barca draw with Benfica
Benfica had a real goal chance in the last second

[Main Street]

It was one hell of a slog.
Viva Samaras.

[From the Bunker]

Samaras has been brilliant.

Ridiculous. Wouldn't be a foul in basketball but we'll take it!

[ONeill]

There are a couple of group winners who wouldn't put the fear of God in you. Might get a decent draw.

Why no sponsor?

[EC Unique]

Fair play to Celtic. Hope UTD draw them.

[ONeill]

All down to Jimmy McGuinness I'd imagine.

[ballinaman]

Why no sponsor?

There is, the Tennants logo is just smaller under the crest.

Celtic yet again not good for my heart. Fair play, delighted!

[fitzroyalty]

Good to win despite being poor enough for much of the match. Penalty was soft enough in my view could have went either way but thankfully Celtic got a bit of luck for a change. Samaras was great tonight, motm - a great character.

job done! nervous performance in 1st half, much better in 2nd half. very soft penalty but Celtic have had plenty given against them over the years in Europe.  amoruso's dive for juve and giggs dive at OT are two that spring to mind.

real and Munich are the 2 to avoid in the last 16.
