Arne Engels: I didn't know I'd scored unti Cal told me

Arne Engels produced another strong performance in the Celtic midfield, which included putting his body on the line to score what proved to be the winning goal against Hibernian at Easter Road.

The Belgian midfielder headed home Celtic’s second goal just moments after Daizen Maeda had given the Hoops the lead, with Engels requiring treatment for a facial injury picked up as he scored.

Speaking to Celtic TV after the game, the 22-year-old said: “To be honest, I didn’t really see it going in so I didn’t know it was a goal until Cal told me.

“So I was happy although I was still a bit worried for my nose actually because it was a sore one, but in the end, I’m really happy to get a goal and for the team to get a win here.”

“I think we were really good today. It’s a really tough place to come and we dealt with it really well so I’m really proud of the boys today.

“We scored two really good goals from pressing and from a cross, so we can be really happy with our performance here and now we just need to keep on going and win every game that comes now.

“There’s a really good atmosphere that we have and before this week came up we told ourselves that it would be really tough, so it’s really nice to get three victories away from home because it’s never easy, and I’m really proud of the boys that we came through this week really well.”
