Gabby Agbonlahor insists Celtic have set the Champions League bar for Rangers after having a go at Real Madrid. Ange Postecoglou ’s team were unfortunate not to go in ahead at the break against the reigning European champions.

They had the better first-half chances and were inches away from a stunning opener when Callum McGregor hit the inside of the post after connecting sweetly with Giorgos Giakoumakis’ lay-off.

They were made to rue those missed opportunities when Real stepped it up after the break and ran out 3-0 winners. Tonight, it's Rangers’ turn as they take on Ajax in Amsterdam.

Gio van Bronckhorst’s men have been licking their wounds since the weekend when Celtic showed the ruthlessness that was lacking on Tuesday night, netting three first half goals in a 4-0 demolition of their rivals in the first derby clash of the season.
