Newry 1-2 Celtic XI

The reserves just keep on winning making it four out of four today with a 2-1 win over Newry.

Derek Riordan and Mark Millar got the goals in the first half before the team eased up after the break allowing Newry to score a consolation.

Reports from my man at the match are sketchy but in the first half Celtic turned on the style and really put Newry to the test with Michael McGlinchey impressive in attack alongside Riordan.

On Wednesday the team moves on to Dublin where they face Shelbourne on Wednesday night at Tolka Park.

Celts beat Celts

Celtic made a long awaited return to Belfast, 24 years to be precise, as Willie McStay took a youthful Celtic XI to Suffolk Road to face Donegal Celtic.

The 1,500 capacity ground was packed with over 5,000 fans as Derek Riordan's goal gave the Glasgow side victory.

On Saturday Celtic face Newry Town before heading to Dublin to meet Shelbourne.
