Celtic’s performance against Aberdeen was a genuine team effort where every player excelled to ensure a League Cup final place was booked next month.

Celtic will now face Rangers at Hampden in what is likely to be a showpiece occasion at the national stadium.

Every Celtic player played their part in the Aberdeen win but the supporters only have one name on their lips as they lauded hattrick hero, Daizen Maeda for not just his goals in the semi-final mauling of The Dons.

Celtic fans are loving ‘ridiculous’ Daizen Maeda after Aberdeen Hampden win

Daizen Maeda just didn’t stop against Aberdeen and the Celtic winger drew all the plaudits after it was his work that created Kyogo Furuhashi’s goal.

One Celtic fan said, “Daizen Maeda is without a doubt our most important player. His work rate is just ridiculous and he must have to stick himself on charge at HT. Superb performance against a very good Aberdeen side. Hopefully, we’ll have an easier final, if not then Motherwell it is..🫤👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼”

Another Celtic fan was blown away by the Japanese winger and said, “Maedas best ever performance in a Celtic shirt btw.” whilst another added, “Maeda is some Superhero he is!”

Was Maeda knackered after his 90-minute display? Absolutely not says this Celtic supporter:

One supporter posted, “Absolutely unreal speed & power!” and another said about the winger’s involvement in Kyogo’s goal, “Maeda was already on the move before the Aberdeen player passed the ball back. Brilliant.”

“Maeda is ruthless.” said another Celtic supporter and another said Maeda “Actually runs away to celebrate rather than lying on the park for 5 minutes to get a breath back.”

What’s been said about Daizen Maeda since Celtic beat Aberdeen at Hampden

The Japanese winger has been immense this season for Brendan Rodgers and Celtic. But after his performance against Aberdeen, pundits and ex-players have been waxing lyrical about the Hoops speed machine.

Michael Stewart labelled the Celtic winger as ‘outstanding’ and former Hoops defender Charlie Mulgrew said Maeda ‘just doesn’t stop’ as he admits he wouldn’t like to face the Japan international.

Even former Aberdeen defender Andrew Considine confesses Maeda is ‘such a threat’ after watching the Celtic winger destroy his old team.

There is absolutely no doubt about how important Maeda is to Celtic as he continues to give opposition defences nightmares with his pace and endurance every time he pulls on the green and white Hoops.
