2: Who scored his first Celtic goal in the same game?
3: Celtic were 2-0 ahead at half-time in the first meeting of the teams on October 19 last year in Glasgow before being pulled back to 2-2. Who were the Hoops’ marksmen that afternoon?
4: Daizen Maeda thumped in a hat-trick in Celtic’s 6-0 victory in the Premier Sports League Cup semi-final on November 2 last year. Kyogo Furuhashi and Nicolas Kuhn joined, but can you remember who claimed the breakthrough goal to trigger the rout?
