Update: Lask won 5-1 without even scoring a penalty. Damn, how did they find the energy to last until the very end? Very intense and good football.

Unbelievable! Celtic out, LASK and Sabah in, well, I think we really have a special group stage (and the big teams must be very happy too lol free points

Any update on sponsor yet @buwa? I see another Champions League thread asking about sponsorship actually Like seems everybody is asking!!

Scottish league must be truly terrible. LASK is a bad team and they had xG of 5 yesterday, in a game in which Celtic just needed to defend.

There's a funny story regarding Sabah, they are led by a coach that succeeds wherever he goes. The only place where he 'failed' was in Hajduk - meaning, he won the Cup after 9 years but was still deemed not good enough by the board because he lost the Supercup to Dinamo on penalties.

I hope Dinamo wins today - this team deserves the CL. I have to say that Viking does as well.

Are you sure about this? It's clear that the opponent was Celtic and there's no point in drawing far-reaching conclusions, but Lask seemed to me to be both skilled and physically prepared to at least try to overwhelm its opponents with tempo. This isn't always pleasant even for the top teams which try not to strain themselves too much during the group stage.
I noticed that despite the fact that 4 games are being played today, there will not be a single comeback... because the result of the first game is a draw everywhere, lol. I don’t see anything to bet on, maybe only AEK - Levski exact score 0-0?

So sad Sabah FK lost the game,,, now they have to win to have a chance. Just personally prefer not to see a team like Beer go to Champions League  

And now they made big comeback. After conceding early goal and being down 0:2 they still managed to send game to extra time, scoring equalizer on completely last attack in regular time. Hapoel player got second yellow card in extra time and it was decisive factor.
I'll brag a bit - Sabah coach Valdas Dambrauskas becomes first manager from my country (Lithuania) who reached Champions league group stage.

I am more of a neutral here but I am actually quite happy to see Sabah progress rather than the Israel team,,, but that is nothing to do with football and just the way I never saw this team before. Very proud of your Lithuanian coach, I doubt I will ever see a Singapore coach go far, since even in our country the coaches are almost all foreigners

I didnt see the game but i just follow the result in their last 10 minutes and i couldnt believe what was happening, i mean how a team like Celtic can let it go or drop a huge diference like this one in just a few minutes? Is crazy  they were 4-0 in the global and they allow LASK to score 4 goals in one half(i know in one half were 3 but you know what i mean) to send the game into extra time and they manage to lose it in that one.

The worst of all is ..... LASK i mean a team who is not a super stablished team is just a team for Austria.

Bodo made good use of their advantage today, I watched 15-20 minutes of their power play and bet on them to win with a handicap of -1.5 with odds of 1.67. And right at the end of the first half, they scored two goals. The only thing I didn't like about their play was their finishing - they tried to roll the ball into the net, much like City did before Haaland arrived.
It's unbelievable, but Lask won 4-1 and now it's extra time. I think Celtic are already psychologically destroyed.

Damn, my post aged so badly . Still, not as bad as Celtic performance yesterday - ba-dum-tss. Scottish clubs in recent years already become joke, but this is next level shit. No idea how LASK found faith and motivation to make such comeback. I watched last 30 minutes of regular time and extra time and Celtic were so bad that I'm not sure how they survived until extra time.
Today I already will refrain from predictions...

Very proud of your Lithuanian coach, I doubt I will ever see a Singapore coach go far, since even in our country the coaches are almost all foreigners  

In our football he is like exception from the rule - we don't have any other coaches with big achievements and working in foreign clubs. In local league probably more than half coaches is foreigners too.
