Celtic B team’s first Lowland League term as it happened
What started out as a quick and unexpected games programme from a young Celtic FC B team ended up a worthwhile experience in the Lowland League with some worthy performances, intense matches and great goals. With a playing team averaging around 17.4 years in age, the Bhoys finished up their first Lowland League season in third place on 73 points, netting 82 goals and with the second-best defensive record in the league.

Celtic B team Lowland League 2022/23 fixtures
The fixtures for the Lowland League 2022/23 season have been released and Celtic FC B will kick off their second year in the Lowland League with a home game against Cowdenbeath on Saturday, July 23 (KO 3pm). The young Bhoys will be looking to make a strong start to their season as they welcome league newcomers to Penny Cars Stadium after their recent relegation from League Two. The Hoops are back to full training and looking forward to the season ahead after gaining vital experience and having consistent game-time last season.

Das B Team geht also in seine zweite Saison in der Lowland League. Regeltechnisch bleibt alles beim Alten was etwa das Alter der einzusetzenden Spieler angeht oder die nicht vorhandene Aufstiegsmöglichkeit, neu ist, das neben uns und den Rangers nun auch ein B Team der Hearts dort an den Start geht. Und erneut ist die Teilnahme nur ein "einmaliges" Arrangement, wie es über die Saison hinaus weitergeht ist also erneut offen.

So, am vergangenen Wochenende hat die zweite Saison des B Teams in der Lowland League offiziell begonnen. Zum Auftakt gab es gleich einen Sieg gegen Cowdenbeath, die vor ein paar Jahren meine ich noch in der Championship gekickt haben, unter der Woche dann aber auch gleich die erste Niederlage in Berwick.


- Celtic B start league campaign with impressive win over Cowdenbeath
The Celtic B team kicked off their new season in the Lowland League with an impressive 3-1 victory over Cowdenbeath. All the goals came in the second half as a double from captain Matthew Anderson and a long-range curling strike from Bruno Davidson gave the Hoops all three points, despite a late goal back from the visitors, who were reduced to 10 men in the opening 45.

Celtic B held by Spartans in entertaining away draw
Celtic B put in a battling performance but couldn’t claim their first away victory of the season, playing out a 2-2 draw in an entertaining match against Spartans. The Hoops took the lead in the first-half from Bosun Lawal, but the home side equalised in the second with an impressive free-kick. Johnny Kenny looked to have given the Celts all three points with a fine goal 14 minutes from time, however, Spartans responded again with eight minutes to play to share the points in the Lowland League clash.

Highlights

Thomson and Vata strikes seal three points for young Celts
Coming out at the break level, two second-half goals away to Civil Service Strollers gave the Celtic B side their first away win of the new Lowland League campaign. After a goal-less first half that saw Celtic come close on a number of occasions, it took the introduction of 16-year-old Corey Thomson as a second-half substitute to put the Bhoys ahead in the 67th minute. Shortly after, Rocco Vata made it two with a stunning left-foot finish to seal the win.

Darren O'Dea: UEFA Youth League is going to be a vital learning experience for the players
Celtic’s passage into the Champions League for the first time in five years means the Bhoys a rung down from the first-team will also be back in the UEFA Youth League and playing against the same teams as Ange Postecoglou’s men. Taking on Real Madrid at the Excelsior Stadium on Tuesday, with kick-off at 3pm, it’s an exciting opportunity and one that coach Darren O’Dea can’t wait for, to see how his side performs against some of Europe’s finest young players.

Und für den Nachwuchs lief es gestern noch um Einiges heftiger als für die erste Mannschaft. Ein Spiel um daraus zu lernen sagt man wohl.

Ja, auf der Uefa website. Und zumindest das Spiel gegen Madrid kam auch auf BT Sports, weiß aber nicht sicher, ob die alle übertragen.
