STAR SHOWING FROM HATATE
Reo Hatate continued his fine pre-season form with a man-of-the-match display against Legia Warsaw. The Japanese midfielder was a constant threat to Celtic’s Polish opponents, and he kicked off his performance with a stunning finish to open the scoring. Hatate latched onto a beautifully clipped through ball by Callum McGregor to hook over Artur Boruc into the top corner. An assist then followed for Daizen Maeda and again Hatate showed real quality with his passing. He tailed off at the end of last season, but Postecoglou really has a player on his hands, and he is certain to play a huge role in the campaign ahead.
