Brendan Rodgers’ men booked their place in the Europa League knockout stages but rounded off their Champions League campaign with a 1-0 defeat to the Belgian outfit who they thrashed 3-0 in the reverse fixture earlier in the season.
It was a poor performance from the Scottish Premiership side, leaving many of their supporters extremely frustrated on social media despite the fact that they ensured that they would be playing European football after Christmas.
The player who seemed to come in for the most criticism on Twitter after the defeat was Stuart Armstrong who played the first-half at Celtic Park before being replaced by Olivier Ntcham at the break.
