Rosenborg 0 Celtic 0 (1-3 agg): Hoops edge closer to Champions League qualification

Celtic eased into the third round of Champions League qualification with a 0-0 draw against Rosenborg, ensuring a 3-1 aggregate victory.

Celtic moved into the third round of the Champions League qualifying stages as they saw off an early Rosenborg charge to progress 3-1 on aggregate with a 0-0 draw in Trondheim.

Odsonne Edouard's double and Olivier Ntcham's effort had given Celtic an advantage heading into Wednesday's second leg at Lerkendal Stadium, but were made to work in the first half as Rosenborg looked to reduce the deficit.

Celtic's resolve was tested early on, Cristian Gamboa brilliantly denying Birger Meling, who had opened the scoring at Parkhead in the first leg, a path to goal.
