Kyogo in Celtic Scottish Cup final injury sweat as he limps out of Aberdeen clash

Kyogo Furuhashi faces an anxious injury sweat ahead of next weekend's Scottish Cup final after he limped off against Aberdeen today.

The Japanese international was involved in a clash with Dons goalkeeper Kelle Roos and was caught just above his ankle.

Kyogo tried to continue but he was subsequently forced off on the 50th minute and replaced by Oh Hyeon-Gyu.

Kyogo scored a double at Celtic Park on trophy day as Ange Postecoglou's side prepare to lift the title against Aberdeen.

In a further injury blow defender Alistair Johnston was forced off also in the second half at Parkhead.

The Canadian international was back involved after missing a number of games after he picked up a knock against Rangers in the Scottish Cup semi-final last month.

He was back in today to pick up some valuable game time ahead of the cup final next weekend, but he now looks a doubt after limping off injured.
