Celtic colours spotted in PSG end at Aston Villa clash

Celtic colours were spotted in the away end at Villa Park last night as PSG progressed to the semi-finals of the Champions League

Although defeated by Aston Villa on the night, the Ligue 1 club progressed to the next stage of the UEFA competition with a 5-4 aggregate victory.

John McGinn scored for Villa, but it wasn't to be as Unai Emery's men crashed out in the last eight.

Villa Park was decked out in green and white as Celtic visited in January as part of the UCL league phase.

However, in a surprise spot, eagle-eyed fans noticed that some PSG fans decided to don Hoops colours at the same venue last night.

One fan could be seen holding a Celtic scarf in the air, displaying a message reading: 'Celtic Ultras'.

Another was photographed entering the stadium wearing a Celtic-themed balaclava.

The connection is not yet known at this time, but clearly the Scottish Premiership champions have some admirers in Paris.
