Boli Bolingoli and Mo Elyounoussi have been named in UEFA’s Europa League Team of the Week.
The left-wing duo were in top form last night as Celtic beat Cluj 2-0 to move into first place in Group E, ahead of Lazio who visit Celtic Park on Matchday 3.

Bolingoli produced a pinpoint cross for Odsonne Edouard to head home Celtic’s opening goal and gave the Romanian champions little encouragement throughout the game.
Loan bhoy Elyounoussi produced one of the best goals of the night even if the finish enjoyed a slice of fortune.
Winning possession deep in his own half he quickly raced forward and sent James Forrest in on the Cluj defence. When the ball was cut back Elyounoussi’s shot struck a defender and flew into the net.
There were other Celtic candidates for Team of the Week but with four points from two matches Neil Lennon will be very pleased with the way that his side have started their campaign after losing out to Cluj in the Champions League qualifiers.
