Bohemians Prague 1 Celtic 0

A strong Celtic lineup for thieir second pre-season game in Austria with Craig Gordon in goal and Odsonne Edouard up front. Keiran Tierney also in the side - not holding talks with Everton then. 

The Celts started quickly, Forrest hitting the bar after seven minutes, Sinclair having a header saved soon after then Hayes coming close with a shot, although he had to go off after half an hour with a knock as his injury woes continued. 

Bohemians went ahead after a mistake by Tierney (sell him!) and a deflection, the very definition of “against the run of play” as Celtic had dominated, and continued to make chances.

Tierney was hauled off at half-time (along with nine of his team-mates) and Bohemians came much more into the game in the second period, Scott Bain having to make a few saves. Celtic still created some opportunities with Mikey Johnston in particular looking lively. 

But a defeat and no goals was disappointing given the amount of possession.
