Celtic stars visit Glasgow restaurant as Hoops celebrate Premiership win

A popular Glasgow restaurant was greeted with a surprise as a host of Celtic players stopped in for some much needed fuel.

Taking to social media to share the recent snap, Glasgow's La Lanterna, located in the west end of the city, showed their delight as the Hoops players stopped by.

In the caption on Instagram the eatery wrote: "We were happy to have some of The Celtic football team join us for dinner recently.

"If you want to enjoy authentic Italian dishes, like they have… book your table for this week."

Dining in the restaurant was Celtic's midfielder Matt O'Riley, striker Oh Hyeon-gyu, goalkeeper Benjamin Siegrist and winger, Jota Filipe.

And it was smiles all round with the staff and players grinning ear to ear before tucking into their food at the award-winning Italian restaurant.

It comes shortly after fans gathered in the east end of the city at Celtic Park following a back-to-back Premiership win for the Hoops after the team defeated 10-man Hearts 2-0.

It also comes as Jota was targeted with missiles by Rangers fans in the crunch clash at Ibrox on Saturday - waving concerns to officials in the process.

With Rangers already coasting at 2-0 up, the Portuguese player went over to take a corner by the home fans in the Broomloan End of the ground. However, in the process, he was targeted by missiles from those watching - before airing his concerns to the match officials.
