The Diazen Maeda goal from the first leg at Celtic Park was particularly intriguing as the game progressed to Bavaria; however, it was not as captivating as many had anticipated. Bayern Munich was apprehensive about the possibility of the Champions League playoff encounter extending into extra time, as there were only seconds remaining on the clock.

After Bayern Munich’s defeat, Peter Schmeichel advised Celtic players to be “proud” in the aftermath. Peter Schmeichel has been a fervent follower of Celtic since his son joined the club in the summer, when he was employed by CBS to cover the game in Munich.

This occurred subsequent to Nicolas Kuhn’s goal in the second half, and Celtic should have effectively concluded the game during the initial 45 minutes. However, Brendan Rodgers’ team had defied expectations and were not only causing an upset, but also playing with genuine quality, both with and without the ball.

As you can imagine, everyone was devastated following the match. However, Kasper’s father recounted how he approached the Celtic players, greeted them, and advised them to be “proud” of their accomplishments.

However, the renowned Manchester United custodian comprehended and clarified that the manner of the defeat caused them all to appear “devastated” in an interview with CBS Sports on Paramount+ (18/02/25 at 10:15 pm). In the aftermath of the match, Peter Schmeichel expressed his disappointment with the Celtic players, stating,

“They looked devastated.” “I approached everyone and extended my hand, expressing my admiration for their exceptional performance and the fact that they have much to be proud of.” “They were so close to achieving extra time, but it was snatched away by the final kick of the game.” It is inhumane.
