Europa League results today: Highlights, goals, scores including Bologna vs Celtic

Celtic’s hopes of reaching the 2025/26 Europa League last 16 are in their hands after the Scottish Premiership side stayed a point above the elimination positions with a 2-2 draw at Bologna.

The Hoops are guaranteed a place in the knockout phase play-offs if they beat Utrecht at home on January 29 (20:00 GMT), while they will be relying on results elsewhere if they fail to win.

Here’s what happened at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara, as well as the full results from the early games in Europa League Matchday 7.

Bologna vs Celtic: Hatate red in Europa League

Reo Hatate slotted in the fifth-minute opener for Martin O’Neill’s team in Italy, only to be dismissed for two yellow cards in quick succession following fouls on Lewis Ferguson and Miranda.

Auston Trusty poked in Kieran Tierney’s cross via Arne Engels’ flick to double Celtic’s lead five minutes before half-time, but Thijs Dallinga replied with a header 13 minutes after the restart and England Under-21 winger Jonathan Rowe then struck with 18 minutes remaining to earn Bologna a point.

Bologna, who are eighth in Italy, are guaranteed a play-off place and must beat Maccabi Tel-Aviv in their decider to have a chance of going through automatically.
