It was one of the highlights of the season- with a fan video capturing the raw emotion of Chris Jullien’s dramatic winner against Lazio.

Perched in the top tier of the Lisbon Lions Stand the camera followed the corner in from the right, met brilliantly by Jullien’s head with a fan jumping up at almost exactly the same time as the ball hit the net.

It was matchday three in the Europa League with Celtic facing the high flying Serie A side back-to-back in fixtures that would have a big bearing on how the group would shape up.

Manuel Lazzari had put Lazio in front five minutes before half-time but Celtic had equalised through Ryan Christie midway through the second half.

A draw would have been a decent result but Celtic fans like some late drama with Jullien obliging with his first goal- accompanied by Superman celebration- to secure full points although it still required an incredible save from Fraser Forster before the final whistle.

Two weeks later another last gasp goal, this time from Olivier Ntcham, gave Celtic a 2-1 win in Rome to ensure a place in the knock-out phase of the Europa League with two matches still to be played.
