[Sport] Scotland: before facing Rennes in Europa League, Celtic wins away

[Lunix I]

The first opponent of Rennes in the Europa League next Thursday at Roazhon Park, Celtic Glasgow has settled for a short victory (1-0) on the lawn of the modest Hamilton Academicals, this Saturday in the Scottish Championship (5th day) .

James Forrest scored on a center of Moroccan-born Norwegian Mohamed Elyounoussi (4th), whose first appearance was with the Scottish leader. Forrest found the cross at the beginning of the second period, then Celtic released his grip and conceded some cons, without consequences for the central defense where the former Toulousan Christopher Jullien was titular.

Former Parisian Odsonne Edouard also started the game. International striker Espoirs, who scored twice for his first with the Bleuets on September 5 against Albania (4-0), was replaced in the 77th minute. In the standings, Celtic now have six points ahead of the Rangers, beaten (2-0) before the truce in the Old Firm and welcome Livingston at 16 hours this Saturday.
