The match kicked off with Celtic displaying early dominance, but it was Engels who truly made his mark, delivering a pinpoint cross that found Scales, who opened the scoring. Despite some wasted opportunities, Celtic maintained control as the first half progressed.
The second half saw a surge in intensity. Furuhashi converted from close range, doubling the lead and igniting the crowd. Engels continued to shine, contributing with a penalty that further extended Celtic's advantage. Although Wimmer's finessed finish momentarily raised concerns, Maeda quickly reassured the fans by restoring the momentum. Idah capped off the evening with a well-timed finish, sealing a resounding 5-1 victory.
This result marks a strong start to the Champions League campaign for Celtic, providing Rodgers and his players with confidence as they look to build on this success.
