Neil Lennon "excited" with Barcelona draw

Celtic manager Neil Lennon describes being drawn against Barcelona in the Champions League as "exciting".

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has admitted that being drawn against Barcelona in the Champions League is "exciting".

The SPL Champions will line up in Group G with the Spanish giants alongside Benfica and Spartak Moscow.

"It's very exciting to be in a group with Barcelona," said Lennon.

"It's a tough, tough group. All the teams play good football, so it should be quite attractive to watch.

"We're familiar with all three teams. Under Gordon [Strachan] we played Barcelona and Benfica, and we also knocked out Moscow in a playoff."

Celtic overcame Swedish side Helsingborg to reach the group stages.
