The Valencia fans behind the goal are asking for a penalty as Lato goes to ground in the box, but the referee had a good view of it and quickly waves it away.
84'
Lee finds himself in some space on the edge of the box and has a go, but his shot is blocked at close range by Ajer.
82'
Brown does well to get through Valencia's midfield and as he gets closer to the box, he decides to have a shot. There's a lot of power behind it, but his shot is blocked as there are a lot of bodies between him and the goal.
80'
Parejo puts another brilliant cross into the box from the right wing and finds Mina. He plays a short throughball to Guedes who is in more space, but he can't pick out a team-mate with his cross back across the face of goal.
78'
Celtic are seeing a bit more of the ball again now, and Edouard does well to wriggle through the crowd of Valencia defenders in front of him to find a pass to Johnston. The substitute can't get on the end of the cross that is put into the box though and Valencia are able to clear the danger.
76'
Lee Kang-In enters the game and replaces D. Wass.
Final change for Valencia now as Lee comes on to replace Wass.

Minute
Description
70'
K. Gameiro has scored a goal for Valencia! Assist by D. Wass.
GAMEIRO PUTS VALENCIA AHEAD! The substitute has only been on for two minutes and is left in a lot of space near the penalty spot as the ball comes in. It just bounces off his thigh and through Bain's legs to nestle in the back of the net. 1-0 Valencia! (3-0 aggregate).
The ball into Wass from Parejo was brilliant, leaving the defender to just direct it onto Gameiro in the middle of the box.
68'
K. Gameiro enters the game and replaces Rubén Sobrino.
Toral makes his second substitution of the match as he brings on Gameiro in place of Sobrino.
67'
Guedes is being given a lot of space down the left wing and is putting some good crosses into Celtic's box, but he's been unable to pick out any of his team-mates so far.
65'
Valencia are finding a few pockets of space in the Celtic defence now, but still haven't found a way to exploit it just yet.

58'
J. Hayes gets yellow.
Hayes receives a yellow card after bringing down Ferran.
57'
Burke is frustrated as he feels that he should have been awarded a free-kick after a Diakhaby tackles him, but the defender gets the ball cleanly and it looked like Burke just tripped over in the end.
53'
M. Diakhaby gets yellow.
Wass' across the six-yard box is a good one and none of the forward players can get close to it, luckily for Celtic who also missed the chance to clear it on its way through.
Diakhaby is the first player to be booked after a high boot challenge on Forrest.
49'
Burke is found with a good looping ball over the top of the Valencia defence and he does well to bring it down with his first touch, but the second takes him out of play and the chance goes to waste.
47'
Valencia have kept the ball well in the opening minutes of the second half and are causing Celtic a few problems down the right wing as they mount their attack.
46'
Valencia get the game back underway for the second half.
45' +2
HALF-TIME: VALENCIA 0-0 CELTIC.
41'

39'
Valencia are seeing a bit more of the ball now after the red card, but are still struggling to create something of note in the final third.
37'
J. Toljan gets a second yellow card and is sent off.
Toljan receives his second yellow card of the game after backing into Guedes and stopping his run, leaving Celtic to play a long time with only 10 men.
35'
Simunovic came close to giving the ball away in his own box as a heavy touch just took it away from him. He recovered quickly though and kept Sobrino from getting to it.
33'
Burke once again finds himself with a lot of space to run into as Celtic win the ball back again. He cuts it back to Christie who hits his shot first time but it was blocked by Wass.
30'
Hayes is trying his best to make something happen down the left and it takes him three attempts to get closer to the box before he finally gets a cross in, but it's intercepted.
28'
Celtic are keeping the ball well between their defenders, but are struggling to get the ball into the final third now. Valencia are keeping their shape a lot better than at the beginning of the game and are starting to frustrate the visitors.
26'
J. Toljan gets yellow.
Toljan is shown a yellow card after pulling back Lato.
24'
S. Brown gets yellow.

23'
F. Coquelin enters the game and replaces E. Garay.
Garay is straight off the pitch with the medical team and Coquelin comes on to replace him.
18'
Valencia work the ball well down the left wing and get in behind the Celtic defence quite easily, but once they get into the box, they start moving the ball backwards which allows the away side to close down the space once again.
16'
Valencia are happy to just sit back and let Celtic keep the ball at the minute and are doing a good job at keeping them in their own half for the time being.
14'

12'
Wass gets into a good position in the final third and he tries to play a one-two with Ferran, but knocks the ball straight out of play to gift possession back to Celtic.
8'
Valencia have finally got possession in the middle of the field and are keeping it well, but they are struggling to find a way through Celtic's midfield at the minute due to their tight shape.
6'
Celtic are seeing a lot of the ball in the opening minutes of the match and have made a bright start to the game as Toljan puts a cross into the box, but once again, it's an easy catch for Neto.
4'
Hayes uses some neat footwork to get past Wass as he cuts into the box from the left wing and creates enough space for himself to put a cross in, but it's too close to the goalkeeper and he is able to stop the attack.
2'
Burke gets into a good position for Celtic down the right wing as he races past his defender, but he takes the ball too close to the byline and it goes out before he has the chance to cut it back into the box.
1'
Celtic gets the first half underway at the Mestalla.
Valencia came out on top in the first leg of the tie with a 2-0 away victory over Celtic, leaving them in a great position of qualifying for the next round of the tournament.

Hello and welcome to live coverage of the UEFA Europa League second leg tie between Valencia and Celtic at the Mestalla.
The teams are out on the pitch now, with kick-off just moments away.
Celtic need to make a quick start to the second half as they chase a goal that would keep them in this tie and give them a chance to qualify for the next round. Valencia will want to make the most of their one man advantage though and get the goal that would probably take the game out of their opponent's reach.
So, Valencia progress into the next round of the competition and extend their winning streak at home to six games in the Europa League. Celtic can now turn their focus back to the Scottish Premiership, where they currently sit first in the table, when they face Motherwell on Sunday.
