Glasgow Celtic FC, whose founding fathers came from Donegal, held the ‘period of silence’ before their Champions League clash with RB Leipzig.
All players wore black armbands during the crunch tie.

On Monday, the Scottish giants paid tribute to the victims of last Friday’s disaster and donated £10,000 to the Creeslough Community Support Fund.
The Support Fund has been set up by the Irish Red Cross in collaboration with An Post and Applegreen to provide rapid and long-term assistance to the Creeslough community.
The late Martin McGill.
One of the ten victims of the explosion was Martin McGill (49) who was an avid Celtic fan.
Originally from Scotland, Martin had moved to Donegal to care for his elderly mother.
