Blackburn 0 Celtic 2 (Agg 0-3)

Celtic proved too hot for their southern opponents, Blackburn, at Ewood Park in the Uefa Cup tonight.

Goals in each half from Henrik Larrson and Chris Sutton put the game out of reach for Blackburn.

Celtic, who were criticised heavily by the media for their performance in the first leg, put in the perfect away performance by sucking up pressure and hitting on Blackburn on the break.
