His appearance didn't influence the result. Very harsh decision.

Ha. But seriously, how can the player himself not know he's banned and say something

I imagine he didn't have a clue. He missed three games as per the ban. The error comes from the fact that Legia, for whatever reason, failed to register him in their squad for those three games. It's a basic admin error that's had no influence whatsoever on the result. Celtic are the luckiest club in Europe right now, as they were destroyed over two legs.

Poor guy's probably absolutely crushed- the Champions League is a big deal to clubs like them.

Inform yourself before posting mate, you sound like an idiot otherwise. Legia are being complete screwed over by the Uefa juggernaut.

Shame. As we won't get to see this lot marauding across Europe

Just far enough away from LDC
I see Oscar pistorius has sacked his legal team and replaced them with celtic. Apparently they have been successful at losing two legs and still winning

He missed the previous two matches and the home leg tie against Celtic.

BUT because he was not in the squad the previous round, the suspension carries on forward - so he's only missed one of his 3 match suspension by UEFA rules.

I can see Legia taking Uefa to court over this. They will miss out on a lot of money. Stupidly harsh and very unfair.

A stupid admin error, and should be treated as such. Even if he had played the whole game and scored a hat trick, it is obvious that he had sat out 3 games as required and the club neither tried or obtained any advantage over those 3 games.

All the Poles I know are highly efficient. There goes another stereotype smashed.

Isnt this the second time in recent years Celtic have gone through like this?

And then they get a easy as draw for the play offs.
