Celtic fans ignored pleas from the club to put on a defiant display of solidarity with the Palestinian plight during Wednesday’s Champions League match against Spanish side Atletico Madrid.

The Glaswegian club held aloft flags during the traditional rendition of “You’ll Never Walk Alone” at Celtic Park.

It comes just days after similar banners and flags were seen during the weekend clash with Kilmarnock, with the Green Brigades Ultras holding up ‘Free Palestine’ and ‘Victory to the Resistance’ banners at the match.

The Green Brigade, which occupy the north curve of Celtic Park, traditionally organise a tifo – a choreographed display involving a large banner or image – for major games.

But as the teams emerged from the tunnel for the Group E fixture they instead held up the Palestinian flags.

They were also waved in other parts of the stadium ahead of the match, which finished 2-2.
