Nicolas Kuhn has had some standout performances that have propelled the Hoops to Premier Sports Cup glory.
The German winger played a pivotal role throughout the competition, capping off his exceptional run with a crucial 87th-minute strike in the pulsating 3-3 draw with Rangers at Hampden Park, which ultimately saw Celtic triumph 5-4 on penalties.
Kuhn’s goal in the final continued a remarkable streak – he found the net in every round of Celtic’s League Cup campaign.
His consistency in delivering key moments was vital for Brendan Rodgers’ side as they navigated a path to yet another trophy. The winger’s knack for stepping up when it mattered most made him one of the defining figures of the cup run.
While Kuhn may not have delivered his most dazzling overall performance in the final, his ability to produce a moment of quality when it mattered most exemplified his importance to the team.
His 87th-minute goal, a composed and precise finish, gave Celtic a temporary 3-2 lead and pushed Rangers to the brink. It was a goal that showcased his predatory instincts and composure under immense pressure.
Like many players, he took time to settle after arriving in Glasgow, with fans initially sceptical about his impact. However, his performances this season have silenced the doubters and highlighted his potential as a key attacking threat for the club.
