Celtic were denied victory at the death in a pulsating pre-season friendly against old foes Rapid Vienna as Ange Postecoglou saw his side held in a six-goal thriller at the Allianz Stadium in Austria.
Matt O’Riley’s brilliant early opener was cancelled out by Bernhard Zimmermann who capitalised on defensive mix up to level before David Turnbull restored the Hoops lead. Rene Kriwak levelled for a second time before Kyogo fired the visitors ahead again. Emanuel Aiwu headed home a leveller at the death.
Postecoglou brought out the big guns for a huge step up in class from their opening friendly seven-goal stroll against regional outfit SC Wiener Viktoria. Last season’s loanees Jota and Cameron Carter-Vickers were given their first run-outs since penning permanent Parkhead deals.
