Celtic were punished again for their defensive errors as they followed up their Old Firm loss with a 3-1 home defeat to Ferencvaros in their Europa League opener. <\/p>\n
Martin O’Neill vowed his team would get things right after their League Cup collapse against Rangers, but it was more of the same after a promising start against the Hungarians.<\/p>\n
They had plenty of early possession, but were soon a goal down when Liam Scales turned Bamidele Yusuf’s shot into his own net after Kieran Tierney had failed to deal with a cross.<\/p>\n
With half-time approaching, Mika Baur slammed the ball into the net to pull Celtic level only for the visitors to quickly restore their lead.<\/p>\n
Yusuf beat Tierney and Callum McGregor was too slow to clear the ball, leaving Kristoffer Zachariassen to flick the ball past the returning Viljami Sinisalo.<\/p>\n
The mistakes continued in the second half. Colby Donovan, handed his first Scotland call-up this week, was caught out and Australian winger Daniel Arzani smashed the ball into the top corner.<\/p>\n
Celtic did have a flurry of late chances, but they could not salvage anything from the game, leaving them with back-to-back defeats ahead of Sunday’s Premiership clash with Rangers, live on Sky Sports.<\/em><\/p>\n More to follow.<\/em><\/p>\n 8: CHANCE!<\/strong> James <\/strong>Forrest crosses the ball into Camilo Duran.
