Celtic player ratings

Conor Hazard

Competitive debut for Celtic and look composed. Couldn’t do much about either of Lille’s goals. Alert to pull off a good save at the end. 7

Christopher Jullien

Great run to the near post from the corner to give his side the lead as he headed home David Turnbull’s cross. Assured at the back. 7

Kris Ajer

Cut out the mistakes that have cropped up in recent times. Changed to right back as Frimpong went off injured and had a great run and pass to set up Turnbull’s winner. 7

Shane Duffy

Did well in the first half, but back to his clumsly self after the break. Quite a few mistakes and was lucky to get away with them in all honesty. 5

Diego Laxalt

Covered for Duffy well on the left and charged forward at every opportunity. Good link up with Elyounoussi, especially in the first half. 6

Jeremie Frimpong

A birthday to forget as he clattered into a railing and limped off with an injury shortly after, but a consolation was wining his side a penalty that Callum McGregor converted. 5

Callum McGregor

Take away the horrible mistake that put Lille on level terms, it was a great performance. Scored the penalty and formed a good partnership with Solo. 7

Ismaila Soro

Grabbed his opportunity with both hands as he started ahead of Scott Brown. Full of energy, breaking up play and positive on the ball. Absolutely everywhere the full game. 8

David Turnbull

Standout performer as he fired home the winner for Celtic. A brillaiant finish, but looked dangerous every time he got on the ball. Exactly what the Hoops have been missing in recent weeks. 8

Moi Elyounoussi

Classy performance, especially in the first half. Showed a good understanding with Turnbull, but tired towards the end. 7

Patryk Klimala

Energetic performance, a willing runner and put himself about at every opportunity as he replaced Odsonne Edouard to lead the line. Did himself no harm, but ran out of steam before he was replaced by Ajeti. 7

Ewan Henderson

On early for Frimpong and filled in admirably in an unothrodox position. 7

Albian Ajeti

Lost the ball too many times when he came on as Celtic looked to see out the win. 4

Tom Rogic

On for the last five minutes and kept the ball well. 5

Stephen Welsh

Subbed on with Rogic. Made a few clearances as Lille looked to get back in the game. 5
