Hands up amongst the Celtic fans if any of you saw that type of Champions League performance coming against RB Leipzig.
I mean, we all knew Celtic had a chance of getting a result after the Atalanta draw but did many fans really think that Brendan Rodgers’ Bhoys would have handed out that kind of beating to Leipzig?
I don’t believe those that are still saying yes but I’m sure you all couldn’t care less.
The performance was exquisite and the Celtic fans in the stands? Well, they were an absolute credit to the team and the club.
Anyway, after the performance, Jim Spence, toasted Nicolas Kuhn after the Celtic winger’s incredible first goal to draw the Hoops level with Leipzig in the last quarter of the first half.
Nicolas Kühn scores an absolute beauty against his former club 🔥

Celtic’s win vs RB Leipzig was ‘great to watch’ as ‘they’re like dancers’
Spence couldn’t hold back his superlatives for the Parkhead side and went on to post after Hatate’s goal sunk the German club:
Celtic don’t so much have football players as artists in attack. They’re like dancers. Their movements are full of elegance, poise, rhythm, and ease. Great to watch.

It really was a beautiful Champions League performance by Celtic and it is one that will have Club Brugge shaking with fear when they come to Celtic Park at the end of November.
