Kyogo Furuhashi's unseen Celtic joy as hat trick hero shares special Parkhead moment

It was a perfect Celtic Park debut for new signing Kyogo Furuhashi.

The Celtic striker netted a hat-trick as he fired down Dundee on his first start in the Scottish Premiership.

Having netted four goals in a week, adding to his strike against Jablonec in the Europa League qualifier, the Japanese international is quickly earning hero status in Glasgow's east end.

However, the 26-year-old wasn't willing to make the day all about him as he shared his big moment with all of the coaching staff.

Kyogo was replaced by Odsonne Edouard moments after netting his third goal of the afternoon, and received a rapturous applause from the fans.

Following the change, off-screen the attacker made sure to approach every coach and player on the Celtic bench and thank them for their support in the game.

He was picked up by the Celtic TV camera after taking his seat on the sidelines applauding the fans with a beaming smile.

It seems Furuhashi is becoming a popular figure at the club both on and off the park.

Furuhashi was the star of the show on his Parkhead debut as Tom Rogic, Anthony Ralston and substitute Odsonne Edouard chipped in with goals in the rout of the 10-man Dark Blues.
