Celtic goal-hero Tony Watt described it as the best moment of his life after scoring what proved the winning goal against Barcelona.

“I couldn’t believe it when it went in” – Tony Watt

The eighteen-year-old Scot superbly held his nerve with just seven minutes remaining to expertly add to Victor Wanyama’s opener after earlier coming on as a second-half substitute.

Argentine ace Lionel Messi managed to snatch a last-minute consolation for the Spanish giants but even he couldn’t prevent the wonderful hosts from recording a truly stunning triumph.

“I just saw Valdes and tried to put it in the corner and I just put it to the side of him and I couldn’t believe it when it went in,” Watt told SkySports. “It is probably the best moment of my life and when I look back at it when I am older and just think I have just beaten Barcelona in the Champions League.”
