Celtic Glasgow took a step towards the group stage of the Champions League by winning 1-3 on Tuesday in the field of FK Sarajevo in the first leg of the first qualifying round.
The Bosnians opened the scoring by Oremus (29th), but the Scots reacted by achievements of Johnston (35th), Edward (51st), and Sinclair (81st).
The night was more difficult for Belgrade Red Star, who dominated but conceded a 0-0 draw on the home ground of Lithuania's small club FK Suduva.
The Serbs will have to wait for the return matches on 16 and 17 July to get their ticket.
