Lennon doesn't want United in last 16

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has said that he does not want to face Manchester United or Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League last 16.

The Scottish champions qualified for the first knockout round of the competition after finishing second in Group G.

"Every one of them's a quality side," Lennon told the BBC. "I'd like to avoid maybe Manchester United and Dortmund.

"But, whoever we get, we'll take - we're really looking forward to it and excited about it."

The draw for the last 16 will be made on December 20.
