GLASGOW, Scotland — Shakhtar Donetsk kept alive its hopes of advancing in the Champions League by recovering to draw 1-1 at Celtic as the Scottish champions were knocked out of European competition. Giorgos Giakoumakis gave Celtic the lead in the 34th minute but a superb finish from exciting young talent Mykhailo Mudryk in the 58th earned the Ukrainian team a point. Shakhtar slipped three points behind second-place Leipzig, a 3-2 winner over Real Madrid on Tuesday. Shakhtar plays Leipzig next week in the group closer having already beaten the German team 4-1 away at the start of group play.
