Benfica 4-1 Celtic. Peter Martin, Alan Rough and Mark pick through a back line that's "so porous, so error-strewn, so nervous", "an inept midfield", and a board Peter says has spent "20 years of let's be an accountants' team". Plus Jack's comment on Callum McGregor, Colby Donovan and Liam Scales, Kasper Høgh as "the Scandinavian Chris Sutton", the goalkeeper ("He's not a Craig Gordon"), Jhon Durán's dinked penalty, and who should start against Hearts on Sunday. From The Football Show LIVE, Friday 16 October 2026.
