Celtic 2 Barcelona 1:

Wanyama and Watt sink Barca to celebrate Bhoys' 125th birthday in style

Disbelief: 18-year-old Tony Watt took 11 minutes before scoring against Barcelona

Keep your cool: Tony Watt (left) slotted home late in the game to put the result beyond doubt

Flying start: Victor Wanyama wheeled away as Parkhead erupted early in the first half

Mismatch: Wanyama out-jumped Jordi Alba to put the header beyond Victor Valdes

Faces in the crowd: Rod Stewart was in Glasgow to cheer on his side

Gotcha: Fraser Forster denies the diminutive Lionel Messi as Celtic battled to hold on to their lead

Swamped: Andres Iniesta (centre) is surrounded by Hoops players

Tough luck: Forster pats Messi on the back after the forward fails to beat him

Have that! Celtic players went berserk after Wanyama put the side into the lead

Frustrating: Messi tried to sneak the ball round the corner to get Barca back into the game
