Celtic player ratings in huge win over Sturm Graz: the perplexor, many 7s, big injury concerns

Celtic picked up a crucial 2-1 win over Sturm Graz to kick-start their Europa League campaign at Parkhead.

Brendan Rodgers’ men appeared in real danger of losing at home for the second time in a row in Europe after Toni Horvat had put the Austrians ahead and put Graz on course to join Barcelona’s 2007-08 side as the only teams to have the distinction of beating both Celtic and Rangers in Europe in the same season.

However, Celtic recovered after the break and in a stirring fightback, levelled through Liam Scales and 61 minutes before Benjamin Nygren headed home the winner three minutes later.

Celtic do have injury concerns, though, after striker Kelechi Iheanacho and Alistair Johnston picked up hamstring injuries, while defender Cameron Carter-Vickers limped off at the end with what appeared to be an ankle knock.

Celtic now 21st in the Europa League standing after three rounds of fixtures.

We give each player a mark out of ten for their performance at Celtic Park.
