Adam Brooks scored a double for Celtic B this afternoon to help his team come from behind at home to University of Stirling in the Scottish Lowland Football League.
The away side got off to the perfect start with an opening goal just four minutes into the match, leaving the young Bhoys with a mountain to climb from the off.
Fine work from hyped teenager Ben Doak led to the equaliser for Celtic B, with Ben Summers latching on to a cross to slot home in the 25th minute.
Summers was involved in the second goal too, this time helping Brooks score his first of the afternoon 12 minutes after the interval.
The game wasn’t put to bed until the 86th minute when Brooks took full advantage of a 1-on-1 opportunity to bang in the third and secure all three points.
First-team fringe players such as Owen Moffat and Joey Dawson were involved in the starting eleven today, while Rocco Vata came off the bench in the second half.
The result moves Celtic onto 64 points from 28 matches in the Lowland League as they duke it out with Rangers B, East Kilbride and Spartans for a runner-up spot behind likely league winners Bonnyrigg Rose.
It’s been a productive season for coaches Tommy McIntyre, Darren O’Dea and their young squad, but they’ll want to keep their winning league form going and close out the campaign with more impressive performances.
