A well deserved Man of the Match Award for Kasper Hogh
A well deserved Man of the Match Award for Kasper Hogh, he’s such a likeable and confident guy who will be back among the goals shortly…
It was a mixed afternoon for under fire Kasper Hogh as he walked away with the MOTM award as Celtic won a tight battle with Kilmarnock to register all three points. However the Danish international was left frustrated and also disappointed that his goal drought continued after he had an early effort was ruled out by VAR for a foul earlier in the move.
A big moment for Kasper Hogh but VAR burst his bubble
Kasper like everyone else from a Celtic perspective inside Paradise was delighted when he tucked home from close range in the 15th minute, but was left disappointed as VAR intervened to rule out the goal after Mika Baur was adjudged to have fouled his opponent in the lead up to the Dane’s strike.
Celtic support showed Kasper Hogh their appreciation
The Danish international then had an effort saved by the Killie keeper, and his goal drought would continue after he was substituted in the 70th minute, but left the field to a well deserved round of applause from an appreciative and knowledgeable Celtic support.
Admittedly his current record for Celtic isn’t good enough for a player who cost £11 million, but he’s so much more than a goalscorer as his performance against the Ayrshire side proved.
He’s a handful for opposing defenders and his link up play with his teammates is terrific, and on another day he would have scored and registered an assist or two. He’s also getting into the right positions and with better luck he will surely start to find the net on a regular basis.
Scoring goals is what Kasper was signed to do
Scoring goals is what Kasper was signed to do, and unfortunately at the moment it just isn’t happening for him, but he’s such a likeable and confident guy that you just know the goals will start flowing when he clicks into gear.
Kasper hasn’t been selected for international duty in Denmark’s upcoming nation league fixtures, but he will be working hard at Lennoxtown in a bid to end his goal drought when domestic football resumes in a fortnights time.
Keep the faith, the big man will come good
Yesterday the Celtic support gave Kasper a tremendous ovation when he exited the field, a significant moment for the Dane who now knows that the Celtic support appreciate his efforts and continue to give him our 100% backing.
Martin O’Neill has said Hogh will score 20 goals this season
Martin O’Neill previously stated that the goals will come for Kasper Hogh and that he expects him to net 20 goals this season, so he has the backing of the Celtic manager too. That’s 17 more between mid November and the end of May.
When Kasper Hogh does break his goalscoring drought there will be no stopping him!
