Celtic 1-1 Wolves: Kyogo opens the scoring after just six minutes while Wolves earn late equaliser with Matheus Cunha penalty

Celtic impressed their fans with a strong performance against Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland.

Last season's Scottish Premiership top scorer, Kyogo Furuhashi, opened the scoring just six minutes into the match. However, Wolves forward Matheus Cunha converted a penalty with five minutes to spare to level the scores.

Celtic fans were treated to a strong display from former Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers' side, and their 85-minute lead made for an entertaining pre-season friendly at the stadium in Dublin.

Just six minutes into play, star player Furuhashi found the back of the net as he bagged his first goal of the new season.

Furuhashi won the ball from deep inside Wolves' half, after some impressive approach play from Mario Lemina and Liel Abada.

The Japanese international went on to fire the ball into the bottom left-hand corner of the goal and wheel off in celebration with his Celtic team-mates.

Kyogo almost made it 2-0 within five minutes of his first goal, with Brendan Rodgers' side entering the match in a dominant display.

It was Callum McGregor who picked out the forward's trademark run in behind with a deep pass, although the ball ended up clipping the bar and bouncing in the wrong direction.

Despite being 1-0 down, Wolves fought back with some more convincing performances from Matheus Nunes and ex-Tottenham defender Matt Doherty.

The Portuguese international, Matheus Nunes, had a big opportunity which rocketed over the cross bar from a close-range shot.

Celtic opened the second half with the same intensity, and had a few missed chances from Kyogo and O'Riley. Wolves responded with a closely-angled shot from Matheus Cunha which flew off the post.

It was in the 86th minute when Matt Doherty won Wolves a penalty after a poor challenge from goalkeeper Joe Hart brought him down in the box.

The Brazilian forward converted the penalty with ease after sending Joe Hart the wrong way to equalise for Wolves and earn them a draw.

Kyogo's dominant display put Celtic in front for the majority of the match, although former Leicester boss Rodgers claims that the late equaliser 'feels like a loss' for the Scottish side.

The Japanese forward has been named by former Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou as a potential 'long-term replacement' for Harry Kane if the England striker is to make a move this summer.

This was Wolves' third pre-season game in front of fans following two wins against Portuguese sides Vitoria SC and Porto. Fabio Silva, who is back at the club after loan spells at Anderlecht and PSV, featured in the second half.

Wolves will subsequently take on Luton Town and Rennes in preparation for the new campaign where they'll look to improve their 13th place position from last season.
