As for the Juve defender. They Juventus defender was there protecting his keeper and giving him a chance to maneuver around the Celtic forward they sent in to stand in front of or right beside Buffon.
I would have gained perhaps an ounce of respect for Celtic's tactics had they taken out Ambrose. They guy was completely useless out there, missing a header with no Juve defenders around him, blocking a shot from his own teammate while attacking and being completely out to lunch on defense. The Celtic manager was too concerned being a drama queen on the sidelines rather than accurately making changes.

Why? They beat Barca at home, they barely lost to Barca away, they won in Moscow and most importantly, they had more points than the team in 3rd place.
