Rio Ferdinand admits Celtic have a player on their hands in Daizen Maeda and that the forward is like a 'man possessed'.
The Japanese forward took the World Cup by storm, scoring in the first half of the knockout stage clash with Croatia in only his second goal for his country. The Hoops forward took advantage at the back post just before the break to fire past Livakovic as Rangers defender Borna Barisic could only watch on inside the box.
It is the first time the Samurai Blue have opened the scoring so far in their Qatar campaign, as they look to pull off another shock at the expense of Zlatko Dalic's men which includes Maeda's Parkhead mate Josip Juranovic. And former Manchester United and England legend Ferdinand was taken aback by the Celtic forward's first-half performance, branding him a 'nuisance' to play against while giving him high praise.
