Celtic FC Women to host both legs of UWCL Round Two

Celtic FC Women will host both legs of the UEFA Women’s Champions League Round Two, as they take on Vorskla Poltava at the Albert Bartlett Stadium this month. The matches will take place on Sunday, September 22 (KO: 12pm) and Thursday, September 26 (KO: 7.15pm). Due to the Ukrainian side being unable to play in their home country, Celtic have worked with them, UEFA and the Scottish FA to come together and find a solution that works for both sides. The club would also like to thank Montrose Women and the SWPL for their accommodations in rescheduling the tie originally planned for September 22, which will now take place on Thursday, September 19 (KO: 7.30pm). The venues are also reversed, with this match now taking place at Links Park, and the next match on November 24 at the Albert Bartlett Stadium. All of these sides coming together has ensured a positive outcome for all involved, and is a fantastic representation of women’s football in Europe. The Ghirls look forward to playing their first European games in Scotland, and your support will be vital as they look to progress to the Group Stages for the first time in their history.  Tickets will be available from tomorrow (Wednesday) and will be priced at £10 for adults and £5 for Under 16s.
