On the hour mark against Portland Timbers Giorgos Giakoumakis opened his scoring account in the MLS.

His previous goal was on a grotty night at Hampden against Kilmarnock, tapping in what turned out to be his farewell goal as a Celtic player.

A protracted move to Atlanta United, delayed due to visa issues with the MLS season starting on February 26 kept the striker on hold but against Portland he found the net.

Sharing his joy on Instagram there was one long distance sniper- former team-mate Joe Hart.

Before joining Celtic Giakoumakis was the top scorer in the Eredivisie with relegated VVV Venlo.

Last season he was joint top scorer in the SPFL with Regan Charles-Cook, after getting off the mark there is every chance that the former Celt will be close to the top of the scoring charts in the MLS.
