Celtic 2-0 Real Madrid, European Cup Q/F 1980

[@ataylor435]

Was there as a 13 yo English boy in the jungle. Went as a birthday present from a family of Celtic fans we lived near in Burnley. Had a family of Rangers fans nearby and a family of Partick fans too. A lot of Scottish families lived in Burnley. I also remember a couple of years earlier Burnley playing Celtic in the anglo scottish cup where there was a lot of trouble. But that was football growing up in the 70's. Anyway thank you to the McCormack family for a memory i'll never forget

Its games like this which caused me to fall in love with football. It was non stop commitment and excitement. Just shows what an amazing side that Madrid team were to be able to turn that around in the second leg. Bet they left Celtic Park very humbled and had their backroom team working on a game plan even on the flight back.

[@paulhagen5645]

I remember being at this game. At that time, Celtic weren't very good, but, this was a great game and we had the beating of them once that first goal went in. Towards the end of the first half of the game in Madrid, we were the better side and had two great chances to increase our lead. Then, in the last minute of the first half, they got a truly dodgy free kick inside the box and scored. That was it for Celtic and we lost 3_0. But for that stupid first half goal, Celtic would have made the semi final. As I say, they were not great that year, but neither were any of the other teams that year, so, you never know. Or maybe l'm just romantasising a bit much.

[@MrMallorcaboy]

paul i remember after going out in the 2nd leg our season fell apart in april. losing twice at celtic park to aberdeen, losing to dundee utd 3-0 and dundee thrashed us 5-1, it killed our chances of the title which we threw away, we ended on a high with the scottish cup win over rangers. great memories of childhood all the same.

[@paulhagen5645]

Yes I do remember that cup final. It did, kind of make up, a bit, for all that happened that season. Then, all that nonsense happened at the end of the game. However, Celtic did win the league the next season.

[@ianmacdonald3782]

Absolutely agree! We were effectively robbed in Madrid as it was never a free kick at the end of the first half. I had a real sinking feeling when we lost the goal and we may well have held on otherwise. A good example of how a goal can change a tie.

[@seanbonella]

in the 70's and 80's scottish clubs really held their own in matches against the likes of madrid and bayern etc.....not fancied but always entertained......dundee, dundee united, celtic, aberdeen, hearts amongst others...not to mention villa, liverpool, wolves, forrest and spurs from England......

When Celtic could compete with the best of them in Europe . This was a brilliant match . Celts thoroughly deserved their victory and were unlucky not to go through to the semi-final . What we don't see from this nine and a half minute clip is the overall performance of the late , great , ex-WBA and England player , Laurie Cunningham , who he was the best player on the pitch that evening , and showed all the classy skills that made Real Madrid want to sign him in the first place .

[@mrmervinjminky5317]

This was a great Celtic European Night, but the greatest European Night for Celtic was in 1970 at Hamden Park against Leeds United when Jimmy Johnstone ran Leeds defense, and especially the great Terry Cooper to the ground. I watched that game live on TV, and that was the first time that I could feel the Hampden Roar. The Noise was deafening, and Celtic had a FANTASTIC T-E-A-M and won the game 2-1 (Big John Hughes and Bobby Murdoch scored) coming from behind in the second half and winning 3-1 on aggregate. Unfortunately, they didn't play well in the final that year except for their Goal Keeper Williams who was phenomenal, and lost to Feyenoord 2-1 in Extra Time.

Michael Johnston The financial arrangements changed in the game and clubs from small countries like Scotland and Holland were declassified and diminished. Vested interests may be against it, but there's no definitive reason why the situation couldn't change again, and this time in Celtic's favour. At the end of the day, we're a big draw - one of the biggest.

In the 60s,70s and 80s celtic,Aberdeen,rangers and Dundee utd could beat the best in Europe home or away. Regularly in the later stages of european competitions and winning things. Such a pity how money has ruined football for smaller countries. UEFA and FIFA are complicit in this in allowing the bigger countries to dominate,allowing the top 4 in the big leagues automatic champions league qualification. In other words,it's blatant elitism. Not to mention sky sports giving Scottish football a pittance compared to the English Premier league.
