On May 25, the midfield player helped the hoops win the Scottish Cup at Hampden, capping a fantastic season.Using a mix of young and bench players throughout the ninety-minute match, Kyogo Furuhashi’s penalty secured a draw away against Ayr United.
After missing two seasons due to injury, Dane Murray made a much-needed comeback, and Bosun Lawal looked the part in his new central midfield role. Murray will continue tonight, playing in central defense with Stephen Welsh after Friday night’s knock to Maik Nawrocki.
With the next away game against DC United on July 21 and matches against Manchester City and Chelsea soon after, the four players that make up Scotland’s European Championship squad will soon begin practicing.
CELTIC: Bain Tomoki, Welsh, Murray, Kobayashi; Lawal, O’Riley, Holm; Yang, Kyogo M Johnston Tonight’s team is a little stronger than the one that started the draw with Ayr, making a return after an impressive loan spell at West Brom is Mikey Johnston.
