Be’er Sheva (Israel): Celtic survived a scare against Hapoel Be’er Sheva to reach the Champions League group stage for the first time in three years with a 5-4 aggregate.
The Hoops were heavy favourites to see out the play-off second leg after their 5-2 victory at Parkhead last week.
Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon saved a penalty in the 15th minute from Maharan Radi, but Ben Sahar soon headed the Israeli champions ahead.
The visitors conceded a second goal in the 48th minute when a mix-up between Saidy Janko and Gordon allowed Romania international Ovidiu Hoban the easiest of chances to make it 2-0, but the Scottish champions held on.
