Shakhter Karagandy 2-0 Celtic
Last updated on .From the section Football

Celtic's hopes of reaching the Champions League group stage suffered a severe blow as Shakhter Karagandy took control of their play-off tie.
The Kazakh side gained an early lead through Andrei Finonchenko's close-range finish.
Kris Commons struck the bar and Georgios Samaras headed wide as the visitors tried to force a leveller.
Emilio Izaguirre and James Forrest also threatened for Celtic before Sergey Khizhnichenko headed Shakhter's second.
Celtic will seek to overturn their deficit in next Wednesday's return meeting in Glasgow.

The first-leg fixture took place at the 30,000-seat Astana Arena in Kazakhstan's capital instead of Shakhter's smaller capacity ground in Karagandy.
And, like Celtic's previous two qualifying rounds, the Scottish champions were playing their away leg on an artificial surface.
Neil Lennon's side had secured aggregate wins against Cliftonville and Elfsborg without conceding a goal but a new defensive line-up looked vulnerable as Shakhter took the lead.
Nikola Vasiljevic headed on Gediminas Vicius' long throw-in and Finonchenko slid in to tuck the ball past goalkeeper Fraser Forster.
Earlier, Virgil van Dijk had twice threatened to mark his first Celtic start with a goal.
Aleksandr Simcevic cleared off the line after the Dutchman outmuscled keeper Aleksandr Mokin at a corner before the 22-year-old had a header saved.
And the home side had another narrow escape when Commons' superbly struck shot hit the underside of the bar and bounced back into play off the goal-line, with the officials deeming the ball had not gone in.
Samaras headed Charlie Mulgrew's free-kick narrowly wide moments later.
Izaguirre may have done better after latching on to Commons' diagonal ball early in the second half, the full-back scooping his shot over from near the penalty spot.
Throw-ins from Vicius continued to cause Celtic problems and Shakhter's confidence in open play was evident as Khizhnichenko tested Forster at the end of a sweeping move.
And, after Mokin did well to block Forrest's header from an inviting Izaguirre cross, Khizhnichenko rose to direct Vicius' wayward shot past Forster.
Celtic's late push for an away goal proved fruitless with Mulgrew unable to keep his header down in injury time.
Shakhter will now travel to Celtic Park hopeful of reaching the group stages of the competition for the first time, while Lennon's men will drop into the Europa League if they cannot recover the deficit.

Celtic, on the other hand, were awful, particularly at the back. Forget Wanyama and Hooper, losing Kelvin Wilson may have been the biggest blow.
... and there's the problem. The team hasn't got much of a defence
All foreign teams (even the smaller ones like the Kazakhs, Cypriots, Greeks, Romanians..) play a better quality football now than Scottish teams. They are supremely fit, fast, disciplined, breaking at speed, technically better on the ball.
In contrast to Celtic that have overpaid mediocre players, who are just good enough to monopolise the league they play in.
Unforgivable.
That being said, even with their squad as it is Celtic should have had not trouble against that mob tonight. They played abysmally. To not even score is a huge failure and they should pray they can make it up in the leg at home.
It's also clear we need a new Striker, Centre mid who can drive the team on and a quality experienced CB who can lead from the back out........... Oh wait !!!!!
Well done Lawell looks like the gamble's about to fail
Celtic 2 - 1 Barcelona ; Shakhter Karagandy 2 - 0 Celtic
Do not be ashamed, there is nothing suprising, but we are just the most greatest team of the world football and the most glorious nation of Kazakhstan! And remember, sheep could help the Scottish football to rise!
It has nothing to do with artificial pitches or air miles. They were better organised and more motivated than Celtic.
Clearly not had a sufficient pre-season because this team is about 5 tiers lower than them in terms of quality.
Shame really, as last season they were very determined and very impressive in europe.
So there goes that excuse!
