Celtic's McGeady slams AC Milan keeper Dida

A Celtic fan ran on to the pitch and was involved in an exchange with the rival goalie after Scott McDonald had snatched a dramatic late winner.

The 90-times capped Brazilian had to be stretchered off and that will go in match delegate Andreas Akkelides' report to Uefa.

McGeady rapped: "Nothing really happened. I watched it on TV last night. The fan touched his neck and he fell down as if he had been struck by a missile.

"Fair enough, the fan shouldn't have been on the pitch in the first place, but I reckon their keeper was fine and made a right meal out of it.

"You are going to get a dive here and there when you are playing against a continental team. Players play up to the referee. That is what happened last night.

"I hope that if Uefa do have a look at the incident they are sensible about it. I am pretty sure they will decide that nothing sinister happened."
