Ferencváros Shock Celtic With Stunning 1-3 Win

Europa League league phase action at Celtic Park on 17 September 2026 saw Celtic suffer a chastening home defeat, as Ferencváros ran out 1-3 winners in front of a cloudy Glasgow crowd. Despite entering the match as heavy favourites at 1.73, with a draw priced as high as 101 and the visitors at 5.2, the home side were undone by a ruthless Ferencváros display built around the attacking brilliance of Bamidele Yusuf, who finished with a goal, two assists and the player of the match award. Celtic did level through Mika Baur just before the interval, but the Hungarian side restored their lead in first-half stoppage time and sealed the result moments after the restart, leaving Martin O'Neill's men with no route back into the contest.
