On-loan Celtic winger Luis Palma scored his second goal in as many games as Honduras defeated Bermuda 2-0 in the early hours of this morning.
The 25-year-old is currently on loan at Olympiacos. Palma remained on the fringes of Brendan Rodgers' squad in the opening half of the campaign and was deemed surplus to requirements in January, thus his temporary switch to Greece.

He was called up to play for his country this month as they took on Bermuda in a two-legged preliminary round Gold Cup qualifier.
Palma netted in a 5-3 victory in the opening tie before tapping in from close range last night as Honduras secured a 7-3 aggregate victory:

The attacker initially joined Celtic in the summer of 2023 and, in his first few months at the club, proved a major hit, scoring regularly both domestically and in the Champions League.
Both appearances and goals dried up in 2024 for Palma, however, and he now finds himself back in Greece.
Olympiacos possess the option to buy the winger come the summer, although with him having scored just once in eight appearances for the club so far, it remains to be seen whether they'll execute such a right.
