Inter Milan and Celtic have played out a goalless first half in their last-32 Europa League encounter at San Siro this evening, with the Scottish side down to 10 men.
Inter came closest early on when the inventive Gary Medel found Mauro Icardi with a neat through-ball, leaving the striker to fire his shot straight at Craig Gordon.
The Celtic stopper was called into action again a few minutes later, this time as Rodrigo Palacio attempted to test the keeper after profiting from some good work from Fredy Guarin.
Inter continued to look menacing in the first half and Guarin was perhaps guilty of missing a good chance when he fired wide with his right following Icardi's pass.
Celtic's hopes of potentially reaching the last-16 stage took a blow before the break, as Virgil van Dijk received his second yellow card of the game and was dismissed in the 36th minute.
