Celtic claimed the scalp of reigning European champions AC Milan thanks to a late goal from Scott McDonald.</p> Following a dreary hour of play, Celtic captain Stephen McManus forced the ball into the net from a corner kick.</p> Milan were level when Kaka converted a penalty, awarded for Lee Naylor's daft grapple with Massimo Ambrosini.</p> But Celtic snatched victory in the 88th minute when Dida failed to hold a Gary Caldwell shot and McDonald was on hand to fire into an empty net. </p> A great night for Celtic ended on a sour note with Dida carried off on a stretcher after a fan ran on to the park to confront the visiting keeper.</p> And the home team could be in hot water with Uefa, although the Brazilian appeared to suffer little more than a cheeky slap.</p> A torrential Glasgow downpour made life difficult for both sides and a messy opening period was littered with stray passes and clumsy challenges.</p> The game's first shot on goal came after 18 minutes and Celtic goalkeeper Artur Boruc gathered a skidding long-range drive from Kaka with ease.</p> The foul count continued to grow at a bewildering rate and the normally noisy Celtic Park was muted with frustration at the wretched stop-start nature of the match.</p> Six minutes before the interval, Scott Brown managed to guide a shot on target but Dida was not troubled by the busy midfielder's effort from distance.</p> The game showed no signs of coming to life until Celtic grabbed a goal from nowhere on the hour.</p> An ungainly touch from Alessandro Nesta resulted in a corner and Paul Hartley's delivery was bundled into the net by McManus at the back post.</p> AC Milan were almost gifted an immediate equaliser when Andrea Pirlo's deflected free-kick wrong-footed Boruc but the Polish keeper recovered to awkwardly scoop the ball over his crossbar.</p> However, the visitors were on level terms soon after, following a foolish foul from Naylor on Ambrosini.</p> With the ball sailing harmlessly by, the Italian collapsed when the full-back tugged at him and Kaka sent Boruc the wrong way from the penalty spot.</p> Aiden McGeady fizzed in a shot that Dida spilled as the game threatened to open up at last.</p> And the home side were rewarded with a dramatic late winner.</p> Caldwell fashioned a shot from the edge of the penalty area and the unconvincing Dida pushed the ball straight into the path of McDonald, who gleefully tucked away the easiest of chances.</p>

Dida should hold his head in shame. He was hardly touched but had to be stretchered off. All the talk is about how bad the fan who run on was. Granted he shouldn't of been on the pitch but why should Dida get away with it?</p> Also I don't like Celtic.</p>
