Celtic played in a bounce game this morning against St Gallen’s under 21 side in what was a hastily put together fixture. It enabled Neil Lennon to give a lot of his squad 80 minutes of football and allow him to play a more senior squad in the friendly against the first team.
Celtic TV did not show the bounce game between a Celtic select and the young St Gallen side but they did record the game from the stands.
Celtic won 9-1 on Tuesday morning with Leigh Griffiths getting four of those goals.
The Celtic TV social media account posted the pick of the bunch as Leigh spotted the young keeper off his line.

Neil Lennon could be set to debut Chris Jullien and Luca Connell later this evening when the Celtic manager plays a side who could start the Champions League tie with Sarajevo next week. Leigh has certainly given his manager food for thought for that tie!
Love it, when on his game he is one of the best finishers in the game,he is a fast thinker and a dead-ball specialists he scores all types of goals….
