CELTIC's young stars secured a big win over RB Leipzig in the UEFA Youth League this afternoon.
The result sparks their campaign into life after earning a 2-1 victory in Germany.
Two goals inside the opening ten-minutes were enough to secure the points.
Rocco Vata opened the scoring after just two-minutes.
Very highly-thought of at the club, the teenager scored a superb volley to get things underway.
And it would be double-delight for the Hoops when Tsoanelo Letsosa netted shortly after.

The midfielder was the quickest to react after somewhat of a scramble in the box.
Stunningly, it could have been 3-0 on 15-minutes, however, Adam Brooks' penalty was stopped by the Leipzig keeper.
As was always likely, the hosts began to ramp up the pressure as they aimed to get back into the match.
Max Voigt scored prior to the hour-mark for Leipzig, meaning that the Hoops had to sustain a lengthy period of such pressure.
However, Celtic's young guns stood firm and held on to the victory.
They will take on Leipzig in the return game next week in Glasgow.
