I do not predict the Foxes to keep ownership of the Premier League trophy directly because stories like Leicester's cannot be written again in as little as twelve months from when they were first wrote. Notwithstanding, a finish in the top six would be nothing to be upset at.

Image source, ReutersCeltic sub Tom Rogic weaves into the area. Is that a hand which blocks his cross? Not much protest as Shinji Okazaki then heads over at the other end.
Penalties? Looks like it.

Just over 32,500 inside Celtic Park for this one. A long way from full, but a lot of people for a friendly, if you ask me.

It was special Gary!
Leicester now look tired as Celtic keep the ball for long periods. Scott Allan has looked particularly impressive since he came on.

You don't get many chances to type this so I will, Efe Ambrose makes a great tackle! Ahmed Musa is one touch away from being clean through, Ambrose has to make a guts-and-glory challenge on the halfway line and he gets it spot on.

Image source, ReutersI've lost count of the number of changes made by both sides now, but it's no more than you'd expect at this stage of their seasons. Celtic have a long flight booked in for Monday. To Kazakhstan, and beyond?

Joe Baldwin: Drinkwater keeps giving Musa the service he always gives Vardy when he plays. Musa keeps giving up the chase and complaining!

Riyad Mahrez in space again, he beats his man and lats the ball off, only to see Shinji Okazaki whack a shot into his shins.
Mahrez is clapped off by all fans as he is replaced by Christian Fuchs.

Image source, AFPI think it's fair to say that Riyad Mahrez would rip the SPL up...
After a good spell of huff and puff from the hosts they leave Mahrez one-on-one at the back and he glides past the last defender like he wasn't there. Mahrez waits, it's what he does, and his cutback for Ahmed Musa is inches behind the Nigerian. That was so nearly a tap-in. The Leicester City counter attack looks alive and well.

Eoghan O'Connell won't score many better goals than that for Celtic! A reminder that we go to penalties on 90 minutes if it stays level. A host of subs again, hang on and I'll wrap them up.
GOAL - Celtic 1-1 Leicesterpublished at 59 mins
Eoghan O'Connell
Image source, Getty ImagesOh yes! Another beauty to light up this pre-season friendly! Celtic work the ball patiently into the area, they have two shots blocked at close range and Scott Brown's effort pings out to the edge of the area.
Centre-half Eoghan O'Connell shouts for it good and early, almost runs around the ball to get it onto his right foot, and then curls a low shot, side-footed, in off the inside of the post.
Brilliant strike!

Image source, AFPA good spell of play from Celtic as they work the ball from left to right but it ends with Leigh Girffiths slashing a shot over the top. The midweek game in Astana is obviously of more importance but this final half hour is still a test for the hosts.

How fast is Ahmed Musa? VERY.
Craig Gordon comes out of his area to clear a ball but the Celtic keeper is embarrassed as Musa appears from nowhere to steal the ball from his toes. Forced wide, Musa looks for company in the middle but Celtic get the ball clear.
Musa and Jamie Vardy up front? A back four's nightmare.
