Former Celtic favourite Moussa Dembele scored a sensational goal for Olympique Lyonnais tonight. The French striker channeled his inner Henrik Larsson as he guided a spectacular effort into the net against Marseille this evening. The former Parkhead striker took the ball brilliantly to bypass the defender before chipping the ball over the onrushing goalkeeper.
The 25-year-old was excellent for the club before leaving in a £20m deal for Lyon after falling out with Brendan Rodgers. It would have been expected for Dembele to really kick on and go to the top-level instead of remaining in France but the deal to take him to Madrid on a permanent basis appeared to fall through, leaving him to spearhead the Lyon attack.
Dembele called Celtic ‘the greatest club in the world’ previously. Dembele was a fan favourite instantly with a hat-trick against Rangers at Celtic Park. He actually managed seven goals and four assists in eight appearances against the Ibrox side. He scored 51 goals in 94 appearances across the two seasons, winning six trophies during his trophy-laden spell in Glasgow. The goal might be any excuse to show this goal, especially with this fixture tomorrow…
