IT LOOKED AS IF THE GAME WAS DESTINED FOR EXTRA TIME. However, Moi Elyounoussi appeared with a fabulous finish to give Celtic a late lead in Latvia. It was a substitute that fans were crying out for during much of the second half – and indeed in the starting line-up – but the Norwegian attacker appeared to give Celtic the win.

It is a game that won’t live long in the memory of Celtic supporters as Riga have everything but Elyounoussi provided the killer touch to send Neil Lennon’s side into the Europa League play-off.
An honourable mention for tonight’s Man of the Match Jeremie Frimpong who surely has now established himself as the first pick as the right wing back.
