Celtic came from behind to secure a thrilling 3-1 home win on matchday four, with Kuhn bagging a quick-fire brace at the end of the first half and earning a Player of the Match award for his efforts.

The 24-year-old spent part of his youth career in Leipzig’s academy before spells at Ajax and Bayern Munich.
Brendan Rodgers spent £3 million to bring the German-born winger to Celtic from Rapid Vienna in January 2024 on a five-and-a-half-year deal.
Following last night’s inspired performance against his former side, Kuhn has sent shockwaves throughout his homeland.
German sports outlet Bild shared the headline: ‘German no-name professional embarrasses Leipzig’.
The Hoops also earned an important point against Atalanta after a 0-0 draw in Bergamo in the wake of a tough 7-1 away defeat to Dortmund.
