TEAM: Schmeichel; Ralston, Trusty, Tierney; McCowan, Bernardo, McGregor, Hatate; Maeda, Kenny, Yang. Subs: Sinisalo, Simpson-Pusey, Scales, Nygren, Yamada, Engels, Murray, Forrest and Donovan.
Earlier today, we asked how much could you remember about past connections with the Tayside club in CQN’s fun five-minute quiz to test your knowledge.
Now we repeat those questions and provide the answers.
HAT-TRICK BHOYS…Liel Abada and Kyogo Furuhashi celebrate at Tannadice. (See Question 4.)
QUESTIONS:
1: True or false: Celtic have clinched the Premiership title twice at Tannadice in the past four years?
2: The Hoops won 5-0 at the venue in April last season. Ryan Strain put through his own goal while two Celts netted a double each. Can you name them? Clue: They are no longer at the club.
3: Who was the Celtic player who limped off with an injury that afternoon and has not featured in the first team since?
4: Kyogo Furuhashi claimed a first-half hat-trick when Ange Postecoglou’s team won 9-0 at Tannadice in August 2022. Another Hoops ace netted a treble. Can you remember his name?
5: True or false: United boss Jim Goodwin is a former Celtic player?
