Celtic ace Matt O'Riley handed Frank Lampard comparison
Matt O'Riley's debut for Denmark last night has resulted in some pretty impressive comparisons for the Celtic attacker. The 22-year-old made his first appearance for the Danish national team at Windsor Park against Northern Ireland. O'Riley wore the number 10, which is usually Christian Eriksen's jersey. And former Northern Ireland goalscorer David Healy admits he can see a bit of Frank Lampard in O'Riley.

"This isn't an easy message to write but I just wanted to express how grateful I am to have been able to represent this special football club," O'Riley, 23, said on social media, external.

"I've been fortunate enough to be in an environment and team full of great people. All my team-mates and the staff made it easy for me to settle in right from day one and feel part of the family.

"The joy I have experienced when wearing the badge and playing in front of you guys is one like no other.

"Every game was an absolute privilege to be a part of and I'm thankful I got to be at the club during a successful period.

"When they say it's a club like no other, it truly is. You guys are one of a kind and it is a credit to all of you for providing such an amazing atmosphere week in, week out.

"Thank you for letting me share these times with you. I will forever be a Celt and I will forever support the club."
