Celtic 2-1 Shakhtar Donetsk.
Massimo Donati's injury time strike paved the way to the last 16 of the Champions League.

It didn't look too promising when Brandao opened the scoring for Shakhtar in the fourth minute after a poor header from John Kennedy landed at the strikers feet.
Worse was to follow with Lee Naylor picking up a calf strain then Kennedy being stretchered off before half time leaving a back four of Gary Caldwell, Stephen McManus, substitute Steven Pressley and Paul Hartley.
The hoops weren't to be denied however with Jiri Jarosik belting in an equaliser as the clock struck 45 minutes.
Jarosik could have put Celtic in front during the five minutes of added time but headed wide with the goal gaping from an Aiden McGeady cross from the right.
There weren't many chances in the second half but right at the death McGeady pulled the ball back for Massimo Donati who struck the ball across goal into the net to spark incredible scenes of celebration.
A point in Milan next week will definately put Celtic through after we helped Milan through last night by denying Shakhtar a point.
