THERE is not a lot of football being played right now across the world as Coronavirus takes hold – except Belarus, where vodka and saunas are meant to keep the virus at bay. However, thanks to @Lilze85 on Twitter, we can take a trip down memory lane and look at some of Celtic’s goals on this day.
First in 2015, Celtic travelled up to Inverness. The game finished 1-1 with an early goal from Leigh Griffiths after just 3 minutes but ICT scored from the restart after just 4 mins.
5 years ago today, ICT 1:1 Celtic.

In 2009, Celtic again scored early through Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink before being pegged back by Hearts. It was a blow that would partially result in Celtic losing the league to Rangers.

In 1995, Celtic were again in Scottish Cup action – this time in a semi-final replay. Goals from Willie Falconer, John Collins and Phil O’Donnell won the game for Tommy Burns’ side at Ibrox.

In 1992, Celtic won 3-2 versus St Johnstone with a goal from Fulton and a brace from Nicholas being enough to split the sides at Celtic Park.

Another Scottish Cup match occurred on this day with Celtic playing Motherwell in the 1931 Scottish Cup Final at Hampden. In front of a 105,000 crowd, two late goals from the Celts forced a replay.
