Image for VIDEO: Watch the wonder goal from Oko-Flex for Celtic reserves

Armstrong Oko-Flex scored a spectacular winning goal for Celtic in the Reserve Cup tie at Falkirk.

The former Arsenal striker had equalised for Celtic in the 35th minute with a fairly routine tap in but his second strike was something special.

Scott Robertson’s corner from the right arrived towards the start of the six yard box, Oko-Flex flicked out his heel to direct the ball goalwards- flying across the face of goal and into the net at the far post to put Celtic 2-1 in front.

It was a piece of magic from the 16-year-old and a marker for what can be expected as he settles in after moving from London to Glasgow.

Last season Oko-Flex was playing in the Arsenal u-18 side but decided that the best career option was to move north of the border to Celtic.

The young striker has already trained with the Celtic first team, if he continues to develop it’s likely that he’ll be given a first team outing this season.
