Tonight’s game always looked like a tie that could be put to bed with a couple of early goals, and Mohamed Elyounoussi has struck after only six minutes.
It’s a fairly hopeful long ball through the middle that most defences should be dealing with, but he gets there before the keeper and his touch is perfect:
Celtic get the early goal! 🍀

Celtic [1]-0 KR Reykjavik: Mohamed Elyounoussi 6′ from soccer
It’s a poor one to lose from the Icelandic team’s point of view, but hopefully Celtic can kick on and have this done by half time.
