Oh Says He Could Cry If He Scores Against Celtic — Which Probably Means He’s Destined to Score!

Former Celtic striker Hyeon-gyu Oh admitted he might cry if he scores against his old club when Beşiktaş visits Celtic Park on Thursday. The South Korean international called Glasgow his "second home" but affirmed his commitment to Beşiktaş ahead of the Europa League fixture. Read Celtic writer Aodhán Ó Conchobhair argues that Oh's emotional connection makes it feel inevitable that the forward will score against Celtic's struggling defense.

The match carries immense stakes for manager Martin O'Neill and Celtic, who sit on zero points after three straight Europa League defeats. Beşiktaş enters the fixture with seven points. O'Neill noted that no team has previously qualified after losing its first three league-phase games, making a positive result vital to keep Celtic's knockout hopes alive.
