Celtic beat LASK 3-0 at Celtic Park to take a commanding lead into the Champions League play-off second leg in Linz — but what does the data actually say? On this Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, Martin, Alan and James dig into a 3-0 win built on three world-class finishes from just 0.89 xG, a lost packing battle, and a midfield that was repeatedly wide open in transition. Alan explains why Callum McGregor was packed 31 times — a figure he's only matched against Bayern, Dortmund, Real Madrid and Milan — while James lays out the \"jailbreak\" problem behind the scoreline and asks whether Mika Baur and McGregor can play together. Plus: Camilo Duran's double and whether he's really a right winger, Benjamin Nygren's vindication after a season of abuse, Kasper Høgh's role debate, Viljami Sinisalo's first big save, Colby Donovan's breakout, and why Haissem Hassan's eight minutes were the most exciting of the night. The guys also look ahead to the return leg at the Raiffeisen Arena, the latest Celtic transfer links, and how Rangers, Hearts, Hibs and Motherwell fared in Europe.
