Beyond midnight, many miles beyond the borders of Europe, a rookie goalkeeper by the name of Temirlan Anarbekov wrote his name into Celtic infamy, the 21-year-old making the penalty shootout saves that guided Kairat Almaty of Kazakhstan into the Champions League group stage.Adam Idah, Luke McCowan and Daizen Maeda saw their attempts saved by a keeper turned to in emergency.
