Hoops mount fightback in Sarajevo

Celtic have one foot in the second round of the Champions League qualifying stages after a 3-1 win over FK Sarajevo.

The Hoops came from behind to earn a deserved victory, thanks to a fine strike from Mikey Johnstone and subsequent goals from Odsonne Edouard and Scott Sinclair. 

If Neil Lennon's men avoid an upset in the second leg, they seem set to face Macedonian champions Shkendija in the next round. 

Post-match, a delighted Lennon praised his side. 

"Considering where we are, so early and against really decent opposition who are tactically smart and a big threat at set plays, it's a great performance," he said.

"We had to fit a few square pegs in round holes because of where we are with the squad. But the attitude, fitness of the players and quality of the goals made it a really good start."
