This is an updated version of this article, which was originally published in 2023. It is fair to say that Athletic Club facing Manchester United in the Europa League semi-finals is something of a miracle.

"Nobody will say we're not capable of bouncing back," wrote goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois on social media.

It is scarcely believable at this stage of the season: the Champions League holders and record 15-time winners Real Madrid are 22nd out of 36 teams in the competition's league phase. Some of the teams above them at this stage include Brest, Lille, Feyenoord and Club Brugge. They have the same points total (nine) as Celtic.
