John Hartson was left speechless by Celtic’s 2-1 victory over Lazio in the Europa League.
The Welshman attended a fund-raising event in Glasgow tonight but obviously kept an ear out for events in the east end of the city.
Good luck to Celtic tonight versus Lazio.. I’ll be in Glasgow but not Celtic Park I’m attending a breast cancer charity dinner.. we are donating 50k to Breast Cancer Scotland.. @HartsFND ??

While he was fund raising an epic drama was unfolding at the ground where he enjoyed many famous European nights.
Celtic set off impressively but were unable to convert their pressure and possession into a goal, five minutes from half time they paid the price when Manuel Lazzari put Lazio in front.
There were a few moments of panic in the second half but once Ryan Christie equalised in the 66th minute there was a feeling that something special was brewing.
With two minutes left in normal time Christopher Jullien headed home a Christie corner, Fraser Forster pulled off an incredible save from Danilo Cataldi before almost 60,000 cheered the final whistle as Hartson continued with his fund raising.
