A bit better from Celtic, as Yang Hyun-Jun skins his marker and flashes a cross into the box.

Luke McCowan can't get it under control though and the chance is gone.

A matter of minutes after this glaring miss from Luke McCowan, Feyenoord punished Celtic.

Celtic have conceded six first-half goals in five Europa League games, only Nice (seven) have conceded more in the 2025-26 Europa League.

Eek.

Feyenoord are all over Celtic now.

Goalscorer Ayase Ueda heads a looping cross back into the middle, where Leo Sauer pokes just over Kasper Schmeichel's crossbar.

I have to admit, I thought he was offside. But the gap is huge. It's just one straight pass that cuts them wide open.

What looked like a pretty positive start for Celtic has turned into a really poor one.

It's a lovely finish, but that is far too easy.

Paul: I'm backing three wins for our Scottish teams tonight to get a little bit of pride back following on from some dire performances. Here we go!

Paul might have gone too early with his prediction.

It's potentially just too easy a chance for him. He probably doesn't commit to it.

I know the flag's gone up, but he's peeled to the back post, the ball's landed at his feet, he's tried to flick it on the half volley almost.

It's a simple finish. The positive is he's in that position and Celtic look a threat from the set play.

That's an unbelievable opportunity.

For those of you able to see this game, you might be wondering why the stand behind Kasper Schmeichel is completely empty, in an otherwise full stadium.

That's because of a Uefa ban, after Feyenoord fans set off fireworks in the Gerard Meijer stand in the recent match against Panathinaikos.

They were also fined £76,000. Naughty boys.

Adolphus: Hope Celtic get a win to set up unity and togetherness for the next manager.

Jack: From a Celtic fan, we're getting smashed.

That's the spirit, Jack.

Luke McCowan simply has to score.

Arne Engels' corner rattles around in the Feyenoord box before breaking to Luke McCowan at the back post.

He somehow pokes his shot up on to the bar from about two yards out.

The offside flag goes up, which might have spared his blushes in any case.

Celtic are getting the ball down and trying to play through the lines in the early stages, but aren't getting too much joy just yet.

Right-back Colby Donovan forces a corner after a lovely pass from Luke McCowan sets him away.

A bright start from Celtic.

Feyenoord centre-back Anel Ahmedhodzic - formerly of Sheffield United - scrambles back to deny Daizen Maeda before clearing a cross from Celtic's left.

Aaand we're off...

The anthem is done, so are the handshakes.

The Uefa graphics have Celtic lined up in a 4-4-2.

Hmmm...

Here come the teams at De Kuip...

Anyone who is confused by the sight of a Van Persie on the Feyenoord bench, that's actually Robin's son.

Shaqueel has an excellent scoring record at youth level but is yet to make his senior debut.

Feyenoord: Wellenreuther, Lotomba, Ahmedhodzic, Watanabe, Smal, Valente, Steijn, Targhalline, Moussa, Ueda, Sauer.

Substitutes: Bijlow, Bossin, Nieuwkoop, Timber, Borges, Tengstedt, Diarra, Sliti, Plug, Ouarghi, Kraaijeveld, Van Persie.

Celtic: Schmeichel, Donovan, Trusty, Scales, Tierney, McGregor, Engels, Hatate, Yang, McCowan, Maeda.

Substitutes: Sinisalo, Doohan, Nygren, Balikwisha, Iheanacho, Tounekti, Kenny, Bernardo, Murray, Ralston, Hale, Isiguzo.

The interesting one for me is Luke McCowan coming in.

Sebastian Tounekti has gone off the boil a bit. Celtic have to be more solid defensively, especially away from home.
