Celtic suffered a historic collapse against LASK in their UEFA Champions League play-off second leg, losing 5-1 on the night and 5-4 on aggregate after leading 3-0 from the first leg. Callum Mc Gregor gave the Hoops an early lead, but the Scottish champions conceded five unanswered goals, including a 90th-minute equalizer that forced extra time. LASK dominated with 40 shots across 120 minutes.

Sky Sports News' Anthony Joseph called it a "monumental disaster," while former defender Mark Wilson described Celtic as "spooked" after conceding quick goals. Injuries to both full-backs forced manager Martin O'Neill to finish with four centre-backs. Mc Gregor admitted post-match: "We got what we deserved... we were passive all night... looked scared to go and win the game." O'Neill acknowledged his side "should've been out of sight by half-time" but refused to criticize squad quality amid transfer market frustration.

Fans reacted with fury, comparing the defeat to last year's Kairat exit, with one supporter calling the performance "hapless, hopeless and humiliated." Celtic now drop into the Europa League, leaving Scottish football without a Champions League representative.
