Champions League review:Celtic have yet to record an away victory in the Champions League after another night of frustration resulted in a 2-1 defeat to Aalborg and ended their campaign for yet another year. Manchester United and Arsenal both qualified after the defending champions drew 0-0 at Villareal and the Gunners scraped past Dynamo Kiev 1-0.
Celtic took the lead against through Barry Robson after 53 minutes but Caca struck back 20 minutes later, before Gary Caldwell, who was retained in midfield by manager Gordon Strachan, scored an own goal three minutes from time.
It was a particularly costly contribution that also ended Celtic's hopes of a Uefa Cup run at the expense of their hosts.
"Having got in a position to win the game and throw it away like that, (it was) very disappointing," Caldwell told STV after the game. "I think we did enough to win the game but football's not like that. You've got to score goals, you've got to do more than that.
"We didn't see the game off when it mattered and we didn't take the chances when it mattered either."
Group opponents United looked happy enough to settle for a draw against 10-man Villarreal at El Madrigal, a result took both sides into the knockout stages.
Cristiano Ronaldo came closest to making the breakthrough, his shot in the first half being touched onto the bar by goalkeeper Diego Lopez.
The winger's teasing prompted Joan Capdevila into a high challenge in the 83rd minute which earned him a red card.
Manager Alex Ferguson thought his side should have won the game.
"We deserved better - we improved our possession in the second half and I was satisfied," the Scot told ITV1. "It takes us into the next stage and that's the main thing."

While tonight's display may not have been vintage Arsenal - victory eventually secured by a late strike from substitute Nicklas Bendtner from a quickly-taken long free-kick by the new skipper - the end result was all that mattered for Arsene Wenger's men ahead of Sunday's league meeting with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
"It is important to win the first game," said Fabregas afterwards. "We did very well, and the attitude was spot on from the first minute to the last.
"It is a great result. We know for sure we are through to the next round so that is fantastic."
Kiev are out of tournament at the expense of FC Porto, whose 2-1 win away to Fenerbahce came courtesy of a Lopez brace.
