UEFA Appoints Controversial Referee Irfan Peljto for Celtic’s Atalanta Clash

October 21, 2024

UEFA has confirmed the refereeing appointments for Celtic’s highly anticipated trip to face Atalanta in the Champions League. Bosnian referee Irfan Peljto will officiate the match, sparking concerns among Celtic fans.

Peljto’s History with Celtic

Peljto previously refereed Celtic’s UEFA Champions League opener against Feyenoord last season, where he sent off two Celtic players, Gustaf Lagerbielke and Odin Thiago Holm. The decisions significantly impacted the game, and Celtic ultimately fell behind.

Celtic’s Challenge

The Scottish Champions face a daunting task in Bergamo, and Peljto’s appointment adds to the challenge. Atalanta, the UEFA Europa League winners, are strong favorites, but Celtic seeks to bounce back from their disappointing defeat to Borussia Dortmund.

Referee Team

Peljto will be assisted by Senad Ibrišimbegović and Davor Beljo, with compatriot Antoni Bandić serving as the Fourth Official. German official Sören Storks will handle VAR duties, assisted by Christian Dingert.

Celtic’s Determination

Despite the tough referee appointment, Celtic remains focused on securing a positive result. Captain Callum McGregor reflected on the recent Aberdeen game and looked ahead to the Atalanta clash, emphasizing the team’s determination.

Atalanta’s Preparation

Gian Piero Gasperini’s Atalanta is gearing up for the match, seeking to capitalize on their home advantage. Celtic must demonstrate strength and resilience to overcome the odds.

Luke McCowan’s Potential Start

Celtic midfielder Luke McCowan deserves a starting spot, potentially for the upcoming match against Motherwell. McCowan’s performance could boost Celtic’s chances.

Conclusion

Celtic faces a challenging test in Bergamo, compounded by the appointment of referee Irfan Peljto. However, the team’s determination and resilience will be crucial in securing a positive result.
