Daizen Maeda has put Celtic back in front with a diving header. The Japanese winger, who scored the opener, found himself in the optimal position to header in from close range after McGovern parried a Matt O’Riley strike.

Celtic had forced the opening after a winning the ball high in the Livi area, which the manager will be pleased with after Livi pulled one back.
Maybe it’s the new haircut but Daizen is now on a hat-trick as Celtic look to build upon this lead and seal passage to Hampden and the semi finals.
