Karamoko Dembele has shared his delight at making a scoring return to action with the Celtic Reserve side.
The 16-year-old was injured at the end of pre-season preparations and named as a substitute for the Reserve Cup match against Morton at Cappielow.
With an hour played and Celtic leading 3-2 Dembele replaced Liam Burt and showed his touch with a goal in the closing stages to secure a win for Tommy McIntyre’s side.

Dembele played 45 minutes of first team football last season in the final SPFL fixture and scored in the pre-season win over Pinkafeld.
After missing more than a month of action he will be looking forward to Tuesday’s match at Albion Rovers in the Jock Stein Friendship Trophy to get further minutes under his belt.
Celtic have got further Reserve Cup matches coming up against Dunfermline and Motherwell as well as Glasgow Cup ties.
