Earlier today, we asked how much you could remember about past associations with the West Lothian outfit in CQN’s fun five-minute quiz to test your football knowledge.
Now we repeat those questions and provide the answers.
HOOP HOOP HOORAY…Benjamin Nygren celebrates one of 15 Celtic goals in his debut campaign. (See Question 4.)
QUESTIONS:
1: Three Celtic players who performed in the 3-0 win at Parkhead earlier in the season left the club on loan deals in the winter transfer window. Can you name the exiting trio?
2: Which Celtic player made his competitive debut in the same game?
3: True or false: This will be Martin O’Neill’s first meeting with Livingston this season?
4: Which Celt has scored four goals – two in each game – against the West Lothian club in this campaign?
5: True or false: Kasper Schmeichel was beaten twice in eight minutes in the Hoops’ 4-2 away win just before the turn of the year?
ANSWERS:
1: Hayto Inamura, Shin Yamada and Johnny Kenny.
2: Colby Donovan as a second-half substitute for Anthony Ralston.
3: True. Brendan Rodgers was Celtic boss in 3-0 win in August and Wilfried Nancy was in charge in December, his third last appearance.
4: Benjamin Nygren.
5: False. Viljami Sinisalo – and not Kasper Schmeichel – was in goal in the 4-2 win.
Well done if you got five out of five. Go to the top of the class!
