It is AS Roma to open the score in the 32nd minute. Nicolò Zaniolo delighting the fans after defeating Borussia Monchengladbach goalkeeper with a headed shot in the top left corner. Jumping higher, and higher, and higher until netting the ball. Awesome. The assist is by Jordan Veretout with a cross following a corner conceded by Ramy Bensebaini. Forza ragazzi!!!!!! Let’s go!

Oh my gosh!!!!! I can’t believe it! What a headache! Referee giving a penalty to Celtic in the 93rd minute. The penalty is conceded by Chris Smalling for a handball inside the penalty area. Lars Stindl converts the penalty defeating AS Roma goalkeeper Pau Lopez with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner crushing Roma fans! Unbelievable… conceding a penalty at the end of the game.
