‘Such a humble man’ ‘You where amazing my friend’ ‘you’ll become a legend’ Celtic fans react to Kyogo tweet

Celtic fans were all over the post-match tweet from Kyogo Furuhashi following the 2-0 win over Ferencvaros.

The 26-year-old possesses the rare combination of dazzling ability of the pitch alongside humility and gratitude to be doing the job that millions would love to have.

Early in the second half against the Hungarians he took a touch to control a brilliant through ball from Jota, one touch later and the ball was in the Ferencvaros net. Celtic’s Europa League campaign was off and running.

Confidence flowed through the Celtic ranks after that goal, a missed penalty and second goal soon followed to the delight of 50,000 inside the ground and many thousands more watching on television.

When Kyogo finally came off in the 86th minute he was given a great reception with supporters recognising a team player capable of delivering an extra dash of magic.

Next up for Kyogo and Celtic is St Johnstone with the replies to his tweet highlighting that he is being watched just as closely in Japan as in his new home in Scotland.
