Leeds United v Glasgow Celtic Record
|
Celtic FC
Founded: 1887Ground: Celtic Park |
Celtic FC, founded in 1887, is one of the most successful and storied clubs in world football. Based in Glasgow, they have won over 50 Scottish league titles and were the first British club to win the European Cup, doing so in 1967 with the legendary 'Lisbon Lions'.
Leeds United played Celtic in the 1969–70 European Cup semi-final. The tie, dubbed the 'Battle of Britain', saw Leeds lose both legs, including a 2-1 defeat at Hampden Park in front of over 130,000 fans — still a European record attendance.
