Copa encouragement, wingers through Parkhead gates

346

Copa America took a turn for the better for Celtic last night.  Cameron Carter-Vickers’ second half appearance was not enough to prevent USA from losing to Panama.  That result leaves both sides on three points going into the final group game.  The USA face Uruguay (two wins from two) in their final game while Panama play Bolivia (two defeats from two).

The final group games take place on Tuesday, so Cameron could be back home to cast his vote on Thursday.  Let’s hope.

Alistair Johnston’s Canada need a point against Chile on Sunday to progress to the quarter finals.  Canada have the advantage as they got a better result against Peru but Chile are favourites to win.  It would be good to see both defenders home soon.

Sead Haksabanovic is one of a procession of wingers who passed through Parkhead gates over the last decade without leaving much of an impression behind.  At 25, he is still young enough to make a good career in the game, but as with all players, he needs a run of games.  Hopefully he’ll get that at Malmo.

  1. England on the ropes.

     

     

    Have to see it again but looked like Guehi was last man when he got his booking.

  2. On hols in Cala d’or, about to go to mass. It may not be right but a few prayers will be offered up for an England defeat 🙏 🙏

    I don`t know if the author of the above was joking but, for me, it does sum up the ridiculous notion of the idea of the existence of a God who actually `listens` to the requests of humans. Must be tricky for him if England fans are asking for a victory for their team :-))

  4. England are up against it in the second half

     

    1. Slovakia

     

    2. England supporters

  5. Dont know why that wasn’t flagged in the first place

     

    Foden must have known he was in front of the ball and the defence

  6. that sloakia player should have scored.

     

     

    and the foden chane, what an idiot

  7. Slovakia need to get back to how they started. England go out, Southgate is offski. Back four have looked like Scotland, a lot. England support is woeful

  8. When I lived down south, there was a programme on Granada TV which interviewed great players who had played in the region and were now retired. One was Eddy Gray. Among other things, he said he would have given his right arm to play for Celtic. What a player we could have had. Must have been among the best left wingers in the world in his heigh day.

  9. Slovakia are using their subs at the right time, bringing more energy to their game just when they need it

    Where’s Harry Maguire when you need him……thought ‘they’ were all superstars.

    Slovakia have shown no ambition to add to their goal and now get what they deserve .

    Slovakia got what they deserved.

     

     

    Played with nothing to lose until they scored and then played not wanting to lose.
