Belfast Celtic teenager's wonder goal becomes viral hit after being viewed thousands of times

A teenager's wonder goal has become a viral hit after video footage of the strike was viewed thousands of times online.

Belfast Celtic youngster Oisin Murphy (16) showed his class with his top bins finish against St Oliver Plunkett on Friday night.

The Under 17 clash was delicately poised at 1-1 when forward Oisin delivered a sublime free-kick into the top corner to earn his side all three points.

Video footage captured by one of Oisin's friends has now been viewed several thousands times on Belfast Celtic's official social media pages.

And as you can see the celebrations almost matched the goal!

A Belfast Celtic spokesperson said: "We're not sure of the total number of the times the video has been viewed as we honestly didn't expect it to blow up as much.

"One of his friends took a gamble on recording the free-kick as it was heading into final minute of the game and he had been taking a few videos throughout the game.

"As you can hear by the reaction after it was an unbelievable video to catch."

It certainly turned into a night to remember for young Oisin, as he also scored Celtic's first goal to cancel out Plunkett's opener.

And guess who won the Player of the Match?

Yes, you've got it. Oisin Murphy.

Take a bow, son. Take a bow.
