In the Almaty-Celtic match, Scotland and Kazakhstan were scoreless for 90 minutes and 120 minutes, respectively. The Champions League title will be determined by the penalty shootout. Experienced goalkeeper Shcmeichel is on one side, and young goalkeeper Anarbekov is on the other. Anarbekov made some excellent saves, especially in the final minutes, forcing the match to go to a penalty shootout. I want Almaty to qualify for the league for a new thrill. We'll see what the outcome is. I have no connection to the Almaty team, but I'm excited for them.

It's really impressive how far Kairat Almaty has progressed in the Champions League qualifier, they defeated Slovan Bratislava in the first leg and won the second leg in a penalty shootout. I was surprised that Celtic failed to score a single goal in the first leg, despite hosting the match. I expected Celtic to score at least four goals in the first leg, but they were unable to get a single goal against a weak squad that was making it to the Champions League debut.

However, I believe Celtic will be eliminated as soon as they fail to win the first leg, as Almaty has the advantage of playing at home and understands how important it is winning in their home stadium. Temirlan Anarbekov is the game hero, as the young goalkeeper saves his team from two penalties. Let's see how this team performs in the Champions League this season.
