Classic Celtic Matches | Celtic 1-0 Manchester United | UEFA Champions League (21/11/2006)

Match Report (Colin Moffat, BBC)
Celtic edged through to the knockout phase of the Champions League thanks to a wonderful Shunsuke Nakamura free-kick and a penalty save from Artur Boruc.
The Japanese star curled a sweet 30-yard strike into the top corner after 80 minutes to brighten what had been a cagey affair.
Manchester United striker Louis Saha was guilty of a terrible miss when he appeared to assume he was offside.
And Saha's night got worse when Boruc saved his last-minute penalty kick.
United must now take a point from the final Group F match at home to Benfica to progress in the tournament.
Celtic, who have never made the last 16 in the Champions League, are level on nine points with United.
But Gordon Strachan's side have a better head-to-head record with United, having scored away goals in their 3-2 loss at Old Trafford.
The visitors settled into a neat passing rhythm early on, taking the sting out of a keenly anticipated contest with sustained periods of possession.
Celtic were uncharacteristically timid in their approach, playing with two solid blocks of four and providing nothing for their strikers.
Neither goalkeeper had been threatened until an ambitious 20-yard volley from United's Wayne Rooney skidded narrowly wide on 29 minutes.
A mistake from Bobo Balde then allowed Cristiano Ronaldo to race in on goal but the defender's recovering lunge took the pace off the Portuguese star's shot and Boruc got down smartly to save.
Celtic made a rare break forward late in the first half but Thomas Gravesen's header from a Maciej Zurawski cross flashed harmlessly across the goal.
Strachan introduced Jiri Jarosik and Shaun Maloney after the interval but the switch did little to enliven proceedings.
Saha headed wide from a corner and Rio Ferdinand hooked a shot high over the crossbar from a similar situation.
Gravesen and Nakamura delivered shots on target but United keeper Edwin Van der Sar gathered with ease.
Ronaldo did well with a strong run after 77 minutes only to see his angled strike take a slight deflection and fizz wide.
The game burst into life in the final 10 minutes and Nakamura brought the previously subdued home support to their feet with his sensational free kick.
Saha was then guilty of dithering in front of goal, looking over at the linesman and allowing Boruc to block his shot.
United were awarded a penalty when Maloney handled a Ronaldo free-kick, but Boruc flew to his right to push away Saha's spot-kick.

What a free kick Naka was a genius fantastic player 🍀🍀🇯🇵🇯🇵
この時のマンチェスターユナイテッドに勝てたことが凄いよなぁ 日本人目線で中村のＦＫに注目しちゃうけど ボルツの素晴らしいＰＫストップが無ければ勝てなかったし チームがハードワークしてこその勝利 セルティックのチームとしての勝利ですね！
mighty NAKAMURA ...one of the best free kick takers !!!
Never seen a ball glide so smoothly into the top bin. Magical player so he was, miss u Naka 🍀

何度見ても飽きないフリーキック！コース、スピード、軌道、完璧！
これは俊さん史上最高のフリーキックだと思ってる…チャンピオンリーグ，対マンユー、ファンデルサール、シュートの距離，角度、コース，スピード…どれも超一流！

I was watching this game late at night in Japan. I remember standing alone in front of the TV and exploding with the same joy as the stadium erupted in cheers. This was the best free kick I've ever seen. It was a proud moment as a Japanese.I love Celtic.

Just a glimpse of how poor bobo balde really was. Unless the ball was in the air he was an accident waiting to happen. What a free kick by Nakamura though.
俊輔のフリーキックは当然だけど、ボルツのPKストップも心に残ってる。
What a amazing night
スーパーゴール❗️スーパーセーブ❗️ セルティック最高‼︎
What a game what a goal what a save❤❤❤
Tommy burns celebrating at the end ☘️💚RIP CELT

The Japanese Connection goes on and on. Domo arigato gozaimasu.
Remember this game. Steaming on a bottle of bucky no 14 bottle 😅 ended up sneaking in infront of my cousin got grabbed said will wait on other side as was already in then my cousin said run. All the way to top tier went toilet changed tops around a d boosh I'm in right in line with nakamura free kick. Never sobered up as quick in my life. Ended up being g an empty seat right next to my cousin the whole game loved it 😂😂😂
Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Celtic beat them in the Champions League. Celtic with Nakamura was the strongest! I had a dream. Celtic were so cool these days! Things like Furuhashi are not like that now!

中村俊輔のキャリアのハイライトの一つですね。この活躍含めたチームへの貢献もあってセルティックという伝統あるクラブのレジェンドになったのですよね。
I love back then the long balls forward. So much more variety. Now its sideways passes constantly. The games slowed down too much
この伝説のフリーキックをゴール裏で見ていたボールボーイが後のスコットランド代表になったってほんとですか？😮
日本の誇り！ セルティックありがとう
There is an interesting relationship between Celtic and Japan
何が凄いって、だいたい同じ位置でもう一回決めてるのが神レベル
crazy
Luis Saha was never the same after that penalty
Big evanda sno I liked him played the first half got hooked at half time HH 🇮🇪😭👍☘️

The best part about it all was the majority of fans walking back to Nuneaton street hadn't a clue we had qualified.

So that’s what having a penalty saved looks like. I’d forgotten.

2nd one.
痛快！！ まさに、この一言に尽きます。
big bobo was dodgie but wouldnt say that to him face to face
この試合の後、美味しいお酒飲めましたかな？😊🍺
俊輔がヤバい光ってるヤツだぬ、ぬ
The hun police raging at boruc at the end was superb 😂😂
Celtic proved in the Champions League that the league level is low. Although there is no doubt that Nakamura is a legend.
当時は… 世界一のチームよ☺️ 芸術的なゴール⸝⸝- ̫ -⸝⸝ トッププロ(´・ω・｀) やりたいよ🥺 かっけぇーんだよ(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧
If ronaldo take that penalty kick, the story will be different.
