Video: Celtic under-19 player scores cracking 40-yard lob against AC Milan under-19s

Readers of a certain generation mightn’t know what we’re on about, but this was almost Nayim-esque in its execution.

Readers of a certain generation mightn’t know what we’re on about, but this was almost Nayim-esque in its execution.

Celtic go head to head with AC Milan in a Champions League clash at Celtic Park a little later on and their respective under-19 sides faced off in a curtain raiser in the UEFA Youth League in Livingston prior to the big game.

We sincerely hope there is but we doubt that any of the senior sides will manage to score a goal as good as the one put away by Celtic’s Connor McManus, who executed a perfect lob from 40 yards to beat the AC Milan ‘keeper, who had wandered dangerously far from goal while making a clearance a little earlier in the move.

Pick that one out.
