Celtic made light work of tonight’s opponents at Paradise as they routed Nõmme Kalju with five goals to effectively kill the tie off. Neil Lennon will feel he can rest some players in next weeks return leg after tonight’s performance.
Leigh Griffiths quite rightly finished with a man of the match award tonight and he nearly scored the first goal only for his shot to be knocked in by Kris Ajer.

There was no disputing the second goal as Ryan Christie slotted away from the penalty spot.

Then it was down to the man of the moment to produce what is his trademark freekick. After such a long spell out of the game and a degree of uncertainty if he would ever get back to the top all questions were answered tonight in this one free. Griffiths is back.

Goal number four was Ryan’s second of the night and what a brilliant finish it was. Christie looks like he means business again this year.

Last but not least it was the turn of Cal Mac to step up with one of his trademark finishes and the Bhoys fifth of the night.

Well dun celts and well dun Griffiths but not in a million years was anyone on that pitch tonight better than the outstanding Ryan Christie, whoever picked MOM must have wanted a pic with Griff.
