It has been months since Celtic suffered one of their worst nights in European history when they collapsed against LASK in their Champions League qualifier.

Unfortunately, whatever Celtic do in the coming years, that game in Austria will ring in the heads of supporters now and again, all for the wrong reasons.

Ex-Celtic man Darren O’Dea’s Slovan Bratislava side loses 4-0 to LASK

Celtic fans will be banging their heads because LASK are making most of their Champions League run this season.

Sitting in 15th place, before the next set of fixtures on Wednesday night, they have now won back-to-back matches.

That includes scoring four goals inside 48 minutes, with former Celtic man Darren O’Dea in the opposition dugout.

O’Dea is assistant to Slovan Bratislava coach Yaya Toure, who are sitting bottom of the Champions League group with four defeats from four.

Pressure on O’Dea and Slovan Bratislava

Last season, O’Dea was a pundit in Scotland, talking about the chaos that was surrounding Celtic, including winning the title on the last day of the season.

But in the summer, he became Toure’s assistant, who took charge of his first managerial gig as the coach of Slovan Bratislava.

While Bratislava have lost every game in the Champions League this season, they are trailing in the Slovak Super Liga.

Bratislava are champions of Slovakia, winning their 24th title last term, but they are currently in second place, seven points behind Dunajská Streda after 13 matches.
