Celtic have the perfect Champions League draw from Real Madrid glitz to a thrilling possibility - Chris Sutton

Ronaldinho was standing just across from us next to partner in crime Samuel Eto’o.

Xavi would be the man our midfield boys would have to handle and me and big John Hartson were going to have to get the better of Carles Puyol. In one of most-iconic arenas in world football, the Nou Camp. After the Champions League anthem had just finished blaring out.

Seriously, some of Ange Postecoglou ’s boys have no idea what is about to hit them and they should be as excited as children at Christmas after that Champions League draw at getting the chance to do what we did. Real Madrid. At Celtic Park and in the Bernabeu. It’s an absolutely fantastic draw. The champions of Europe. For Postecoglou’s boys, it’ll be Karim Benzema, Luca Modric, Toni Kroos, Vinicius Junior instead of the boys we faced.

Just like us, they’ll be desperate for a crack at them. Celtic fans really wanted Real having had Barca often in the past and now it’s on. What a prospect.

And, do you know what? Mixed with the glamour, it’s the perfect group because, not only is it box office, it also looks possible to get out of it.

Real are sensational. Streetwise and a winning machine when it comes to the competition. But Sheriff Tiraspol beat them in the groups last season and it’s really a no-lose for Celtic. No-one expects them to get anything from those games.

However, there has to be opportunities against RB Leipzig and Shakhtar Donetsk. Celtic only have to look at last season’s Europa League semi-final against Rangers to see the Germans are beatable.

Coach Domenico Tedesco is still in charge and they still have star names such as striker Christopher Nkunku. But Rangers did a job on them last season and Postecoglou will fancy doing the same, especially on home
