Olivier Ntcham's Celtic glory goal gets the Samba treatment in brilliant Brazilian TV commentary

It was a finish even the most distinguished purveyors of Joga Bonito would've doffed their cap to.

With one nonchalant flick of his right boot, Olivier Ntcham dinked Celtic in the Europa League last 32 with two games to spare.

In a single moment, memories of the 12 failed attempts at victory on Italian soil were instantly forgotten, Lazio stunned by Neil Lennon's rapidly developing side.

But Ntcham's goal and the euphoria that followed is now destined to be played over and over for years to come.

For many it'll be forever soundtracked by an ecstatic Chris Sutton 's very off-brand loss of composure on BT Sport, although this effort from Brazilian TV isn't half bad either.

Ntcham's goal sparked wild scenes in the Celtic end and, it seems, in the commentary box.

This brilliant clip from Fox Sports captures the madness of the moment with a distinct Samba twist.

As well as a 14-second lung bursting outpouring from the commentator, the background music adds an extra, if unexpected dimension, to the celebrations.

You can watch the full clip via the video below, and no, you don't need to speak a single word of Portuguese to appreciate it.
