Celtic FC vs Inter Milan Tickets

Two European Cup winners, Celtic FC and Inter Milan, are on the brink of an eagerly awaited clash at Celtic Park.

Founded in 1887 with the purpose of alleviating poverty in Glasgow’s immigrant community, Celtic FC is a Scottish football institution with a storied history of domestic success. Celtic's influence transcends Scotland. The 1967 European Cup is the club’s crowning achievement, coming from behind to beat Inter Milan 2-1 in the historic final.

While Celtic has been a frequent participant in the UEFA Champions League in recent years, their European journey rarely continues to the knockout stages. Their best recent campaign was the 2012/13 season when they shocked the world with a 2-1 victory over FC Barcelona at Celtic Park. They advanced from their group before being eliminated in the round of 16 by Juventus.

Hailing from Italy, Inter Milan is another footballing powerhouse with a rich history of domestic and European success. Inter Milan have won numerous Serie A titles and also left their unique mark on the European stage. They’ve been crowned champions of Europe on three occasions winning back-to-back European Cups in 1964 and 1965. Their third trophy win came as part of their famous 2010 treble under Jose Mourinho.

Inter Milan’s record in Europe was poor in the years that followed. However, they did reach the UEFA Champions League final in 2022/23, narrowly losing 1-0 to Manchester City.

Celtic and Inter Milan’s biggest ever showdown undoubtedly came in the 1967 European Cup final. Alessandro Mazzola gave Inter the lead from the penalty spot in the 7th minute. However, second-half goals from Tommy Gemmell and Stevie Chalmers secured a historic 2-1 Celtic win.

The two teams met again in the 1971/72 European Cup semi-finals. In a tense affair, both legs ended 0-0 and the match was to be decided by penalties. Inter Milan won 5-4 in the penalty shoot-out thanks to Dixie Deans’ missed spot kick.

Celtic and Inter Milan’s next meeting took place in the 2014/15 UEFA Europa League round of 32.
