Harry Kane is happy with Bayern Munich resolve in Champions League win over Celtic
Celtic missed out on a place in the Champions League last-16 despite a spirited and superb outing away from home against Bayern Munich.
The hosts led 2-1 after the first leg in Scotland but looked off the pace in a disjointed first half where they barely threatened Celtic’s goal and went into the break as the second best team.
Brendan Rodgers’ side had created plenty of decent chances but it was former Bayern man Nicolas Kuhn who sent the visitors ahead and looked like forcing the match to extra time.
With the Hoops now level on aggregate, Bayern piled on the pressure in the last 20 minutes and it was a substitute, Alphonso Davies, who provided the difference. With the last kick of the game, Davies arrived at the back post and turned home a rebound from Kasper Schmeichel after the goalkeeper kept out a headed effort from Leon Goretzka.
It was an incredible end to a fine match but Bayern Munich are the ones to progress.
Celtic suffered the cruellest of Champions League exits after Alphonso Davies scrambled an equaliser for Bayern Munich in the final minute of stoppage time in the Allianz Arena.
The Scottish champions looked set to take the play-off into extra time after Nicolas Kuhn put them ahead in the second half from the latest in a series of good chances they created.

Bayern Munich go through. Thye win 3-2 on aggregate.
