However, as his club failed to include him in their squad registration for the second round matches, he had not finished his suspension when he came on as a sub in the 86th minute in the return leg against Celtic F.C. in the third round.
Legia won the match 2–0, and 6–1 on aggregate.
However, after considering the mistake, UEFA set the result to a 3–0 win for Celtic.
This made the Scottish team winners on the away goals rule.
