'Haaland is better, but not 100%" Pep will leave striker out of Sevilla game

Chelsea midfielder Denis Zakaria scored on his debut as his side finished their Champions League Group E campaign with a 2-1 win over Dinamo Zagreb at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, topping the group and ending the European campaign for the Croatians.

Manchester City teenager Rico Lewis marked his first senior start with his maiden goal for the club as City came from behind to complete their commanding Champions League group stage with a 3-1 defeat of Sevilla.

FC Copenhagen scored their first goal in this season’s Champions League campaign, drawing 1-1 with already qualified Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday in their last Group G game.

Celtic, meanwhile, failed to earn a first victory in the Champions League this year as they succumbed to a 5-1 defeat by Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.

Follow all the action, goal updates, and major incidents from across the Champions League tonight:

Shakhtar 0-1 RB Leipzig

24 mins: RB Leipzig have been dealt a blow as Timo Werner - who had started the match against Shakhtar brightly - has had to be taken off after pulling up following a simple pass. It looks as though he’s tweaked a muscle and can’t play on.

Emil Forsberg is on to replace him for the visitors.

GOAL! Real Madrid 2-0 Celtic (Rodrygo, 21’)⚽️

21 mins: Rodrygo won the penalty and now he’s going to take it. Joe Hart dives to the left this time but the striker goes to the goalkeeper’s right.

He lifts it into the roof of the net and doubles Real’s lead!

Penalty to Real Madrid!

Real Madrid 1-0 Celtic

20 mins: A second penalty for Real Madrid after Matt O’Riley is punished for a handball to stop a shot from Rodrygo. VAR told the referee to head over to the pitch side monitor and after a look at the replays she changes her initial decision and awards another penalty to the home side.

Real Madrid 1-0 Celtic

18 mins: Save! What a ball this is from Luka Modric.

He slides a pass over to the right side where Marco Asensio knocks the ball past the Celtic back line before driving into the box. He curls a cross over to the back post where Rodrygo arrives and belts a shot at goal only for Joe Hart to get across and keep it out!

Real Madrid 1-0 Celtic

14 mins: Real Madrid are starting to fully control the match now. That goal has settled them down and they’re making things tricky for Celtic.

Marco Asensio laces a square pass over to Federico Valverde from the right wing and the midfielder takes a touch to control the ball before smoking an effort wide of the left-hand post from outside the box.

GOAL! Shakhtar 0-1 RB Leipzig (Nkunku, 10’)⚽️

10 mins: Advantage RB Leipzig! Georgiy Sudakov stumbles in midfield and the ball rolls loose to Christopher Nkunku who strides forward before laying the ball off to Timo Werner.

Werner’s effort doesn’t beat Trubin but the rebound comes back to Nkunku who slots it home.

Shakhtar 0-0 RB Leipzig

8 mins: Over in the other Group F match of the evening RB Leipzig have started strongly with Timo Werner getting a couple of early sights on goal.

Werner’s second effort is the best of them and he draws a sharp save out of Shakhtar goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin.

GOAL! Real Madrid 1-0 Celtic (Modric, 6’)⚽️

6 mins: Luka Modric sends Joe Hart diving the wrong way and Real Madrid take the early lead against Celtic! Lots of work to do for the Scottish side now.

Penalty to Real Madrid!

Real Madrid 0-0 Celtic

5 mins: A through ball sends Rodrygo into the box and he keeps the ball alive at the byline before fizzing a shot at goal from a tight angle and forcing Joe Hart to make a decent save.

The ball rebounds out to Federico Valverde who leaps up and hammers a shot into the ground. Mortiz Jenz blocks it but he sticks out his right arm and handles the ball. It’s a clear handball and the referee wastes no time in pointing to the spot.

Real Madrid 0-0 Celtic

3 mins: Aaron Mooy intercepts an aerial pass in midfield and kicks Celtic into gear to move up the pitch. He slides a pass out to Josip Juranovic on the right wing but the full-back’s cross is hooked straight out of play.

Bright start from Celtic though. They’ll want to start quickly and if they can get a goal Real Madrid may start to get rattled, however unlikely that may be.
