The left-back opened the scoring for Celtic with a wonderful drilled finish and his all-around display was fantastic as the Hoops kept their hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages alive with a 2-1 win.

The win means that Celtic are now tied on six points with Leipzig and they’ll be looking to win in Rosenborg and hoping that RB Salzburg can defeat Leipzig on the same day.

If that does happen, the Hoops will be in a good position to qualify as they’ll then only need a point against an RB Salzburg side that will have already secured first place in the group.
