Video: Celtic qualify for group stages with dramatic late goal

The fans had been biting their nails all night, but James Forrest brought the roof down with a goal in injury-time to send Celtic through to the group stages of the Champions League.

Despite dominating the opening half, all they had to show was this sensational strike from Kris Commons. However it appeared that the task would be very straight forward when Georgios Samaras scored within two minutes of the resumption, but after missing further opportunities and Karagandy hitting the woodwork twice, the sides seemed beckoned for extra-time. However some great footwork from Anthony Stokes saw the Irishman pull the ball back for Forrest who roofed the ball into the net to spark wild celebrations, with Neil Lennon even running the touchline to join his players.
