- Paradise witnessed a seven-goal thriller on October 31, 2001 as Martin O’Neill’s Celtic side secured a 4-3 victory over Italian giants, Juventus, in the group stages of the UEFA Champions League.
The European campaign might have ultimately ended in disappointment as the Hoops missed out narrowly on qualifying for the knockout stages of the tournament, but the win over Juventus remains a special night to remember, with Chris Sutton’s stunning strike the pick of the seven goals.
Alessandro Del Piero who gave the Italians the lead on 19 minutes, hitting a stunning 25-yard free-kick into the top right-hand corner of the net.
That lead lasted just five minutes, however, before Joos Valgaeren headed home an equaliser for Martin O’Neill’s side. And on the stroke of half-time, the Hoops took the lead through Chris Sutton. Del Piero was replaced by David Trezeguet at the break and the Frenchman quickly made his mark with an equaliser on 51 minutes, but Henrik Larsson restored Celtic’s lead six minutes later, converting a penalty.
Then came the goal of the night on 64 minutes. A free-kick into the area was headed into the path of Sutton who, from 14 yards out, smashed home an unstoppable left-foot volley. And though Trezeguet scored again for Juve, the Hoops held out for a memorable 4-3 win.
Speaking to the Celtic View about that game, then Celtic manager Martin O’Neill said: “Getting nine points and going out was a bit disappointing but they tell me that the match against Juventus was as good a game as has been played in the Champions League this season.
“The players must draw some sort of confidence and comfort from that and know that if they play as well as they can do like that they are capable of winning big matches. Obviously they have to play to that standard, exacting though it is to achieve those results, but at this minute in terms of the development of the football club it's wonderful.
“I'm not going to let anyone tell me differently. We had nine points in the group, we beat all three games at home, and if you had said when I first took over here that we would be in the Champions League and we would have victories over Ajax in the qualifying stages and also victories over those three sides, it would have been stretching belief somewhat.
“We've a great never-say-die attitude and we have great ability in the side. We've proved that in those matches but we have got plenty to learn as we also proved during the competition.”

22 years ago was the last time we built a team for European football, since then it's been nothing short of diabolical and the entire blame lies with PL, DD and now ML.
Football even more corrupt now than it was then virtually no chance for smaller countries to compete as facts will tell everyone this the beautiful game has been taken over by the money men
@@michaelmccreery8192 We had Leipzig and Shaktar in our group last season, teams that aren't anywhere close to the elite clubs, we are a couple of days away from the transfer window closing, have a bloated squad full of absolute dead beats, a board that are doing absolutely nothing to help the manager and the managers getting all the criticism that should be aimed directly at the Lawwells, Nicholson and Desmond, yes we have injuries but that's why we have transfer windows, we done more flying about to meet Brendan than we've done to speak to or sign players, total regression from under Ange but we all knew the board were milking him to paper over the cracks, those cracks cannot be papered over anymore, back the manager or step down, it's as simple as that.
Well said.
Genuinely idolised this squad 🍀💚
We had an amazing team then, we’re straight into CL and our team is weaker than last year. Same reason we lost the 10 lack of ambition by our board.
What an atmosphere in Paradise that night, great memories! 💯🍀🏴 Big Sutton 😄💯
When celtic are not so Good today , then remind fans of when celtic WERE Good . . .
Fell in love with Celtic since then
Can only wish for a team of that ilk again, these days the cost would run into 100's of millions.
Was at this game, shame I haven't seen a Celtic team as good since.
Sutton's goal was pure filth one of his best imo what a amazing night 🍀
Was at this game. I only go a few times a year now but was a regular then, and easily one of the best games I’ve ever been to.
Enough of this guff, what's the story with some signings???🍀
Your a roaster!
watched this in Amsterdam
Wow man😮😮😮😮🎉🎉🎉🎉
Agate izz awesome
Can we have results like this again....
Back then we could spend big bucks to get the right players in example big Sutton 6 million nowadays 6 million is nothing and we can't spend the same or a bit more so we can get experienced player's in to enhance our squad esp for Europe but the best thing about is its the same owners back then as it it's the now. Use can definitely see we need players around the age of 27-30 cause we've got a young squad unlike the one in this video. Hail Hail #LetsBackRodgers
How much would didier agathe be worth in the days game. Beyond thinking about 🍀
Just tell me is Luis Palma match-fit? :D
He’s not. His paperwork won’t be in till Monday I’ve been told
Back Brendan, Board,,, Stop Rangers........ keep them where they are.......
I was there HH
Wonder how far we could have gone with a decent keeper
Hail hail 🇮🇳🙌🙌😀
🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

Not a good move reminding us of this right now, Celtic. We'd get humped 5-0 off juventus reserves today
