NOW YOU KNOW: Celtic lost 1-0 in the Battle of Montevideo B MURRAY (Drumchapel) On a recent visit to the Museum, I was thrilled to see Jimmy Johnstone's jersey from the World Club Championship play-off final against Racing Club of Argentina. What made it even more exciting was the fact that it still had the mud stains from the actual Lebron 9 Ps South Beach I know that the game ended up in farcical scenes, but I cannot remember the details. Can you give me information on the three matchesThe first leg of the World Club Championship was held at Hampden Park on October 18, 1967, and a Billy McNeill goal gave Celtic a 1-0 victory.The second leg was played in Buenos Aires on ナイキ暗殺者9 1, 1967, and, despite Celtic taking the lead through a Tommy Gemmell penalty, Racing Club scored twice to level the final on a 2-2 aggregate.This match was marred before it had even when Ronnie Simpson was struck by a missile thrown, presumably, from the crowd, and had to be replaced in goal by John Fallon.The play-off match took place in Montevideo on November 4, 1967, and produced even more disgraceful scenes.The Paraguayan referee completely lost the place and this resulted in on-field chaos.Two Racing Club players were sent off and Bobby Lennox, Johnstone, John Hughes and Bertie Auld were sent off for Celtic (although Auld refused to leave the field).Amidst the chaos, Racing Club won 1-0 in what became known as the Battle of Montevideo, although they did not receive much praise from the world's media because of the manner of their victory.
