Odsonne Edouard took his goal tally for the season to 25 with the opener in Celtic’s 1-1 draw away to Copenhagen.
Before the match the Frenchman was highlighted as the main danger to the Danes by manager Stale Solbakken, twice in the first 10 minutes home keeper Karl-Johan Johnsson had to be off his line sharply to deny the Celtic striker.
Edouard wasn’t put off, in the 14th minute he put Celtic in front when he dinked a shot over Johnsson after Callum McGregor had switched a flowing move from right to left.
It’s that man again! ?

Celtic should have extended their lead before the break, in the second half Copenhagen were transformed with Dame N’Doye equalising in the 52nd minute.
Eleven minutes from the final whistle Fraser Forster saved a penalty from Jens Stage with the stage set for more magic from Edouard in the return leg next week.
