Video: Beautiful Goal By Matt O’Riley In Tonight’s Pre-Season Friendly

Celtic are visiting Czech outfit FC Banik Ostrava in the third game of pre-season this evening. At the time of writing, Celtic lead by three goals to one and each of the goals have been sensational.

The Hoops trailed in the early stages, before Kyogo rounded off a nice move with a simple finish from close range. But O’Riley’s goal was far less simple. Indeed, the young Danish international picked up the ball in an advanced position after good incisive play by David Turnbull. O’Riley then unleashed a curling effort into the far corner of the net from 25 yards…

A stunning effort to give Celtic the lead, which they then built upon in the second half. Just under half an hour remains.
