Bayern’s Davies nets late equaliser against Celtic to book CL last-16 spot

Agency :

Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies snatched a last-gasp equaliser against Celtic for a 1-1 draw in their play-off on Tuesday as they reached the Champions League (CL) last-16 by 3-2 on aggregate.

They will next face either fellow Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen or Atletico Madrid depending on Friday’s draw.

Davies scored in stoppage time after former Bayern reserve player Nicolas Kuehn had given the visitors a shock lead in the 63rd minute as they tried to overturn a first-leg deficit and win a first game in Germany in 16 attempts. Having lost the first leg 2-1 in Glasgow, Celtic came agonizingly close to forcing extra time with a bold performance that had the hosts on the backfoot for much of the game.
