Ottmar Hitzfeld's Bayern stood their ground and looked fired-up Celtic and an intimidating Glasgow crowd squarely in the eye on Tuesday night, turning in a grittily determined performance to claim an immensely valuable goalless draw. Maybe, just maybe, the Stefan Effenberg era - or at least the long shadow cast by the supremely effective midfielder - came to an end at Parkhead as the Munich club took another giant stride away from their autumn crisis.
