Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Celtic FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Celtic FC is showing some good football. However, Celtic FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 10' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Celtic FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 15' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Liam Donnelly, as he is very good at scoring at Celtic Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 21' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Kyogo Furuhashi makes it 1-0.
  • 26' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Cameron Carter-Vickers suffering a number of foals already.
  • 31' The travelling Motherwell FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 36' Sean Goss is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Celtic FC tonight.
  • 40' David Turnbull does the damage! The net is bulging and Celtic FC surge ahead!
  • 44' Kyogo Furuhashi has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 44 minutes.
  • 46' Motherwell FC make a change. Sean Goss trudges off to be replaced by Kevin van Veen on 46 minutes.
  • 51' Victor Nirennold has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 56' Celtic FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 59' The deadlock is broken! Jota gets on the scoresheet on 59 minutes.
  • 61' A change in the Celtic FC ranks — Tom Rogic exits the field as James McCarthy enters on 61.
  • 62' A change in the Celtic FC ranks — Tom Rogic exits the field as James McCarthy enters on 62.
  • 63' Fresh legs for Celtic FC! Stephen Welsh comes on to replace Greg Taylor.
  • 66' The supporters are chanting for Giorgos Giakoumakis. He replaces Kyogo Furuhashi on 66 minute.
  • 67' Yosuke Ideguchi is replacing David Turnbull for the Celtic FC side.
  • 68' Giorgos Giakoumakis doubles the advantage! 5-0 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
  • 68' Another substitution for Celtic FC to replace Greg Taylor by Stephen Welsh on 68 minute.
  • 73' looks like a favorite considering 0 games won in last 0 matches with its main striker scoring goals.
  • 76' It’s gonna be a Yellow card for Ricki Lamie.
  • 77' Mark O'Hara is replacing Connor Shields for the Motherwell FC side.
  • 82' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Yosuke Ideguchi made 313 appearances and scored 8 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 85' It is a substitution in Celtic FC team. Callum McGregor is replaced by Nir Bitton on 85 minute.
  • 90' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • With this win, Celtic FC is likely to improve its situation in the overall team standings.
