REPORT: CELTIC TURN ON STYLE WITH WIN OVER RB LEIPZIG

Nicolas Kuhn hit a superb double as a slick Celtic side roared back in style from losing the opener to complete a rousing 3-1 UEFA Champions League win over RB Leipzig at Celtic Park.

Brendan Rodgers' side secured a deserved victory against the Bundesliga's second-placed side, who took the lead against the Scottish champions via a Christoph Baumgartner header on 23 minutes before being pushed back for large swathes of a frantic contest.

And it was a dominant Celtic who showed their fighting qualities and genuine class with two brilliant finishes from German winger Kuhn (35' and 45+1') giving them the lead at half-time.

The Glasgow side finalised the win when Reo Hatate slammed home from close range on 72 minutes to seal a memorable evening and give his team seven points from their opening four group matches in European football's premier event.

RB Leipzig remain pointless with this defeat following narrow losses to Atletico Madrid, Juventus and Liverpool. Read more here:
