FT: Celtic 4-2 Utrecht
More from Celtic boss Martin O'Neill on transfers: "We know we need to supplement the squad. We need a wee bit of quality to help, particularly with the extra games now.
"To get another European night at Celtic Park, I don't think it will do us any harm, if we get the players in which I hope we will do.
"It's nice to be in the draw. Whether we're good enough to continue is another issue."
On links to Fares Ghedjemis and Damir Redzic: "I don't know about a percentage [of how likely they are to sign].
"It could be [one rather than both]. There's progress today on certain things. I don't want to be cryptic, but I would hate to say something was certain and it fell away."

Image source, SNSInterim Celtic manager Martin O'Neill: "Delighted with the result. Performance for most parts was really terrific. Our pressing was terrific and as a consequence, we got ourselves a couple of goals in front.
"Not that you're ever coasting, but we were doing splendidly. Then they get a goal back, it unnerves you a little bit and they got the second goal and you're beginning to get a wee bit concerned because I thought we were flagging a bit. [Auston] Trusty comes up with a great header and we deserved to win the game.
"You would have got long odds on us qualifying after four games. Great credit to the players. They worked tirelessly. I said to them before the game, last Thursday's performance was magnificent, the performance in Feyenoord was great, so you don't want that to count for nothing. We won and so we're in the next stage.
"I was concerned because we didn't make that many changes after Sunday and I don't think you can constantly press for 90 minutes. There are stages then where you have to sit back. We allow them in for their second goal and that put us on the back foot.
"We win and it's just nice to get through. Winning breeds confidence.
"We are definitely making progress [on transfers], there's no question about that."
It's back to Premiership duty for both Old Firm clubs in this captivating Scottish top-flight season.
Rangers travel to Hibs on Sunday (14:00 GMT) before Celtic welcome Falkirk an hour later.

Rangers fans, what should your club do with Findlay Curtis?
Thumbs up to keep him for the remainder of the season, thumbs down to send him out on loan...

Billy Dodds
Former Rangers striker & coach on BBC Sportsound
[Findlay Curtis] has a fantastic attitude to go with his technical ability. His attitude is to die for. He would be a good addition [for Kilmarnock]. It's important he gets minutes. He's been involved for Rangers - 21 games - but it's important he plays full games.
FT: Porto 3-1 Rangers
The Sportsound pundits are having a discussion about Rangers youngster Findlay Curtis.
He's been linked with a loan move to Kilmarnock this window, and we happen to have Killie assistant - and former Rangers coach - Billy Dodds on our coverage tonight...
FT: Porto 3-1 Rangers
Image source, SNSRangers head coach Danny Rohl tells TNT Sports:"We started well, we were on the front foot in the first 15 minutes and we played well, very brave.
"The two goals after 1-1 were too easy, this moment was the killer. They controlled the game more in the first half and we missed some moments in their half. We have to be brave there.
"Second half, we tried. We played with courage, some good football, but all in all it's a defeat.
"For me, it's about a process. I compare this to my first game in Bergen - I see a big difference.
"You need that extra quality, that extra final pass and that we need to work on.
"In the last two weeks, there's a reason why Findlay [Curtis] got more minutes - he's deserved it. We had a good talk with him two weeks ago, and since then there's been big progress in his development.
"It is great to see this, how brave he is. It's important that at his age he gets a lot of minutes.
"I see Manny [Fernandez] with a good performance, John [Souttar] and Nasser [Djiga] the same. We have a lot of good options in defence.
"I see in the last four games a big step forward."
FT: Celtic 4-2 Utrecht
Thanks to Benjamin Nygren’s sixth-minute strike, Nick Viergever’s 10th-minute own goal and Arne Engels’s 19th-minute penalty, Celtic registered their fastest 3-0 lead in any major European match.
FT: Celtic 4-2 Utrecht
Interim Celtic manager Martin O'Neill tells TNT Sports: "I think over the past couple of weeks we've shown great resilience. We didn't make many changes so they've gone again. We're in the hat.
"The players have done brilliantly. I'm just so glad the win at Feyenoord and [the draw] last Thursday in Bologna counted for something."
On potential transfers, O'Neill adds: "We're making progress and I think we can move it along now in the next couple days.
"It's not been easy. Not just for us, for other clubs too, but perhaps Celtic fans think it's just us. We're trying to do some work and we think we can do it.
"I can never guarantee anything, I don't think anyone can, but we're very hopeful."

Let's see...
FT: Celtic 4-2 Utrecht
Celtic captain Callum McGregor tells TNT Sports: "We knew the objective was to win the game and get through to the play-off round.
"When the pressure was on we managed to deliver results. The mentality in the group has been amazing, the boys have been hungry to dig ourselves out of the hole we were in.
"For the first 25-30 minutes I thought we were really good."
On potential January additions, McGregor adds: "We trust the club to get the players the manager and the staff want."

No further goals in the second half, but this scoreline never really looked like it was in too much doubt.
Rangers failed to trouble Diogo Costa in the Porto goal too often, while the hosts took their foot off the gas.
Ultimately, the damage was done in 14 first-half minutes, when Porto scored three goals to rule out Djeidi Gassama's first-half header and put themselves in a very commanding position.
Auston Trusty's header was Celtic's fourth goal of the night

Utrecht hit back through Dani de Wit and Blake before Auston Trusty adds fourth for Celtic
Martin O'Neill's side now face either Stuttgart or Ferencvaros in knockout play-off round
Celtic kept their Europa League campaign alive with a deserved victory over winless Utrecht at Parkhead.
Goals from Benjamin Nygren and Arne Engels, either side of a Nick Viergever own-goal, put Martin O'Neill's side 3-0 up inside 19 minutes before Dani de Wit pulled one back for the visitors with their first shot of the match.
Adrian Blake brought Utrecht back within one goal as his long-range strike beat Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, but Auston Trusty headed in Engels' corner four minutes later to calm any nerves.
Having finished 21st in the league phase, Celtic will now face Stuttgart in the knockout play-off round.
O'Neill called for his players to go for it pre-match with qualification on the line and they flew out of the blocks against the Dutch outfit, who finish their European campaign with just one point.
Nygren tapped home Kieran Tierney's cross from close range and they doubled their advantage when former Celtic goalkeeper Vasilis Barkas found Nygren with a slack pass.
The Swedish midfielder tried to square it for Daizen Maeda, but it was instead turned in by Viergever as the visitors compounded the initial error.
De Wit was then penalised for handball after a video assistant review (VAR) and Engels dispatched the penalty to put Celtic in total control.
Or so it seemed.
Schmeichel was unmoved as De Wit's shot found the bottom corner and although he made an excellent save to tip Niklas Vesterlund's header round the post, he was unable to keep out Blake's shot down to his left and Celtic's comfortable lead was suddenly nervy.
However, Trusty climbed highest to nod in a fourth and Celtic managed the remainder of the game to make sure their European campaign continues for two more matches at least.

Celtic had one remit against Utrecht - win - and they did that comfortably in the end.
The fact that the scoreline could and should have been more will not bother O'Neill, and nor should it.
Progression was the be all and end all and could help attract much-needed recruits to the club before the transfer window closes on Monday.
One area of the squad they might be looking to strengthen is between the posts, given Schmeichel's erratic form this season.
He made several excellent saves in last weekend's Scottish Premiership draw against Hearts and the stop he made to deny Vesterlund on the stroke of half-time was quite superb.
However, the way he was rooted to the spot for De Wit's goal was reminiscent of Bologna's second goal in Celtic's previous European outing and he will be disappointed to have been beaten by Blake's strike from a good 30 yards out.
Interim Celtic manager Martin O'Neill: "Delighted with the result. Performance for most parts was really terrific. Our pressing was terrific and as a consequence, we got ourselves a couple of goals in front.
"Not that you're ever coasting, but we were doing splendidly. Then they get a goal back, it unnerves you a little bit and they got the second goal and you're beginning to get a wee bit concerned because I thought we were flagging a bit. [Auston] Trusty comes up with a great header and we deserved to win the game."
O'Neill's side host Falkirk on Sunday (15:00) in the Scottish Premiership as they try to make up ground on Rangers and Hearts above them.
Celtic have now won five of their past six home games in European competition (incl. qualifiers) against sides from the Netherlands (L1), scoring 2+ goals in each of those victories.
Thanks to Benjamin Nygren's 6th minute strike, Nick Viergever's 10th minute own goal and Arne Engels's 19th minute penalty, Celtic registered the 10th quickest Europa League 3-0 lead and their fastest in any major European match.
Benjamin Nygren has 20 goal contributions across all competitions for Celtic this season (14 goals, six assists), the most by any Scottish Premiership player.
With his goal tonight, Celtic's Auston Trusty became the first American defender to net multiple goals in the same major European campaign.
Celtic's Callum McGregor started his 66th game in major European competition for Celtic tonight, with only Billy Bremner (76) and Peter Lorimer (73) starting more among Scottish midfielders overall.

Celtic have won their last two major European matches against Dutch opponents, both times beating Feyenoord (in December 2023 and November 2025).
FC Utrecht and Celtic last faced in the 2010-11 UEFA Europa League qualifying phase play-offs – the Dutch side lost 2-0 away in the first leg but won 4-0 in the second leg to progress on aggregate.
Celtic went 2-0 up against Bologna on MD7 but drew 2-2 – they’ve won just two of their last six major European matches when going 2-0 up (D2 L2).
FC Utrecht are winless in their last 10 away major European matches (D2 L8) since winning 4-0 at MSK Zilina in October 2003 – they’ve only netted two goals in their 10 away games since.
Only Go Ahead Eagles (132) have faced more shots in the UEFA Europa League this season than Celtic (123), with the Bhoys facing 36 on MD7 against Bologna – the joint-second most ever by a team in a game since 2009-10.
