Half-Time Report: Celtic lead thanks to early Kris Commons goal

Celtic lead Dinamo Zagreb 1-0 thanks to Kris Commons's goal in their Europa League Group D clash at Celtic Park.

An early goal by Kris Commons has given Celtic a 1-0 lead against Dinamo Zagreb in this evening's Europa League Group D clash at Celtic Park.

The home side took the lead in the sixth minute, courtesy of an expertly executed team move.

The former Derby man dodged Emilio Izaguirre's pass to allow it to run to Anthony Stokes before finding space, taking the return pass and poking the ball past Eduardo.

Just before the half-hour mark, however, Dinamo came close to an equaliser when Wilson Eduardo's fierce effort cannoned off the Celtic crossbar.

Moments later, the Hoops could have doubled the hosts' lead after goalkeeper Eduardo miskicked the ball straight to Commons, but his decision to pick out a teammate instead of going for goal came to nothing.

Wilson Eduardo had another good chance in the latter stages of the first half to put the Croatians back into the game after his vicious volley had to be expertly saved by Craig Gordon.
