Image for Celtic: Some Hoops fans talk about Tony Watt post

Some Celtic fans have been talking about the latest post that former player Tony Watt sent out on Twitter.

Watt posted an image of the team celebrating during his time at Celtic. He himself was in the photo but he was spotted wearing a Barcelona shirt following their victory over the Catalan giants back in 2012.

Which club did Larsson join Celtic from?

On seeing this image, many Celtic fans were left talking. They wanted to know as to whose jersey Watt was wearing in that picture. One fan was nostalgic about the Celtic jersey from that season.

The image is from Celtic’s game against Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League back in the 2012/13 season. The Hoops had won the game 2-1 despite Lionel Messi scoring very late in the clash at Parkhead.

Victor Wanyama had scored from a corner, while Watt had come on from the bench to double the Hoops’ lead in the game. Messi’s goal proved to be a mere consolation.

What do we think?

The game was certainly a special one for Celtic, considering they had beaten a Messi-led Barcelona. With it being a memorable occasion, one can understand why Celtic fans are asking Watt about whose jersey he was wearing in the photograph that he posted.

It was special for Watt as well, considering it is the only Champions League goal that he has scored in his career.
