City have been all over the place at the back in the first half hour. I have no confidence in their keeper, trying to work out what he's supposed to be good at, 5 foot 7 and ball control in this game has been suspect.

Silva has been well under par in this game so far. Not one of my favourite players.

Celtic have done really well first half, City have been under par. You would think City will exert a bit more control of a frenetic game in the second half, and probably win it.

Missing De Bruyne.

Man C poor defensive first half display has continued in the second half.

Celtic just keep coming.

Wonder if this might give some teams the courage to go at City in the league

They can try, City's defence isn't the best, trouble is you could end up on the wrong side of a serious beating if they pick you off on the counter with space left at the back.

3-3, good goal.

Bravo, Clichy, Zabaletta, Otamendi and Kolarov, isn't a defence that would give me confidence.

Game's gone quiet, everyone knackered, settling for draw?

Celtic have done well tonight but a lot of City players have been distinctly average tonight.

I guess Guardiola had to not win a game eventually.

61% to 39% possession to Man C.
23 shots to 9
9 on target to 3.

City really should have won it, even though they weren't that great.

The question is, can Celtic do it on a cold Tuesday night in Stoke?
