Daryl Murphy and Richie Towell were on target today as a strong Celtic XI beat Bohemians 4-1 at Dalymount Park.
Neil Lennon listed an attack minded team including Murphy, Gary Hooper and Anthony Stokes with Hooper opening the scoring in the 24th minute with a low shot into the net.
Before the half hour Murphy doubled Celtic’s lead with Irish u-21 internationalist Richie Towell putting Celtic three up on the hour mark.
Dominic Cervi replaced Lucasz Zaluska in goals with youngsters Bahrudin Atajic, Islam Feruz and James Keatings given a run replacing Hooper, Efrain Juarez and Glenn Loovens.
Bohemians did pull a goal back with five minutes left to play through David Ludola but former Waterford striker Murphy restored Celtic’s three goal advantage before the final whistle.
CELTIC: Zaluska (Cervi 59); Wilson, Loovens (Keatings 67) Hooiveld, Twardzik; Towell, Juarez (Feruz 67), Crosas; Stokes (Atatjic 67) Hooper (Trialist 59) Murphy
