Global Reaction: Bayern Munich’s Narrow Win Over Celtic Sparks Debate

The highly anticipated Champions League clash between Celtic and Bayern Munich lived up to its billing, with the German giants emerging victorious in a thrilling 2-1 encounter. The match, played in front of a raucous Celtic Park crowd, was marked by controversy, drama, and outstanding individual performances.

As the world media reacts to the match, one thing is clear: Bayern Munich’s narrow win has set the stage for a thrilling second leg at the Allianz Arena. Here, we take a look at how the global media has responded to the match.

German publication Bild hailed Bayern Munich’s win as a triumph over the “noise of hell” at Celtic Park. “The Bavarians silence the noise of hell! The Munich team won the first leg of the Champions League play-off against Celtic 2-1, opening the door to the round of 16,” the publication wrote.

Belgian outlet Sporza, meanwhile, noted that Bayern Munich “stumbled” at Celtic Park, but ultimately managed to hold on for a vital win. “Bayern stumbled at Celtic Park. It would blow up in the Germans’ faces. First Celtic screamed for a penalty, but they got no response. Not much later the Maeda fumbled the connecting goal in the net,” Sporza wrote.

Spanish publication Marca highlighted Bayern Munich’s dominance in the match, noting that the German giants “demonstrated their status as favourites” with a convincing win. “Bayern Munich beat Celtic in the first round. The German giants, who dominated the game, although they suffered a little in the final stretch, demonstrated their status as favourites and beat the Scots on the road with goals from Olise and Kane,” Marca wrote.

French outlet L’Equipe, meanwhile, praised Michael Olise’s outstanding individual performance, noting that the Frenchman’s goal was his fifth in the Champions League this season. “Often in difficulty away from home this season, Bayern won on Celtic’s pitch. Positioned very low, the Scots held on until the 45th and a lightning strike from Michael Olise: found by Dayot Upamecano, the Frenchman successfully hooked Greg Taylor before sending a terrible left shot under the bar,” L’Equipe wrote.

As the world media continues to react to the match, one thing is clear: Bayern Munich’s narrow win has set the stage for a thrilling second leg at the Allianz Arena. Celtic, despite ultimately coming up short, can take heart from their performance, and will be looking to cause an upset in the return leg.

Bayern Munich, meanwhile, will be looking to build on their narrow win and secure a spot in the Champions League round of 16. With the likes of Harry Kane and Michael Olise in their ranks, the German giants will be confident of their ability to see off Celtic and advance to the next round.

As the two teams prepare to face off again in the return leg, one thing is certain: the world will be watching with bated breath. Will Celtic be able to cause an upset and advance to the next round, or will Bayern Munich’s quality and experience ultimately tell? Only time will tell.
