Neil Lennon will take the inspiration of Sir Alex Ferguson into his preparations for the first-leg of Celtic's Champions League last-16 clash against Juventus at Parkhead. The Manchester United boss - an ex-Rangers player - has offered his Hoops counterpart regular "tit-bits" of advice as the Parkhead side battled through two qualifiers before coming second to Barcelona in their group to take them into the knockout stages where they were paired with the Italian giants.

90+4'
FULL TIME. Celtic so unlucky to lose 3-0 at home to Juventus, but the Italians were clinical, and that was the difference.
90+2'
This game is petering out - a sad end for a Celtic side that fought so well against their illustrious opposition.
90'
We will have three added minutes.
89'
Marchisio goes into the book for Juve as the game nears an end.
88'
Can Celtic get anything from the game? They need some inspiration now but a Mulgrew free-kick is hit straight at Buffon.
86'
Vucinic has done his part and comes off to be replaced by debutant Nicolas Anelka.
85'
The gamble of playing Ambrose hasn't paid off at all, either.
84'
So, so harsh on Celtic who have had the much greater weight of chances, but Juve have been clinical.
83'
GOAL! Celtic 0-3 Juventus! This is ridiculous. Celtic undone again by a ruthless Juve side. That's it done. Ambrose was caught in possession 30 yards from his own goal and Marchisio played in Vucinic, who slotted the ball under Forster.
81'
Juve make a change of their own as Paul Pogba replaces Matri.
80'
Kayal comes on in midfield as he replaces Brown - who has run his heart out for his team.
79'
Beram Kayal is getting ready for Celtic now...
78'
Incredibly harsh on Celtic, who have been by far the better side, but ruthless from Juve.
77'
GOAL! Celtic 0-2 Juventus! Marchisio with a second that could kill this tie off completely. Matri plays in the midfielder with a lovely first-time touch. He cuts back inside Brown and then beats Forster with a straight shot that the keeper gets a hand to.
77'
Padoin, like Lichsteiner before him, continues to wrap his arms around Brown when the corner comes in.
76'
Another double booking as this time Brown and Padoin go into the book for pushing at a corner.
75'
Mulgrew delivers an outswinger but he can't find Ambrose at the back post. Celtic play the ball around and then win another corner, on the opposite side...
74'
Izaguirre has a cross deflected behind for a corner...
73'
Watt does come on and it is Commons he is replacing. That gives Celtic more presence in attack.
73'
Pirlo with the corner and he finds Marchisio 25 yards out. The shot is low and meek though and Celtic clear their lines.
