LASK recovered from Callum McGregor's early goal to overwhelm Celtic 5-1 in the Champions League playoff round. The Austrian side scored five unanswered goals after falling behind, turning the tie on its head with a relentless attacking display.
McGregor put Celtic ahead in the 21st minute, but Moses Usor equalised for LASK on 32. Robert Ljubičić edged LASK in front from Usor's lay-off in the 48th minute, Samuel Adeniran added a third on 58, and Florian Flecker made it 4-1 in the 90th. Adeniran completed his brace in the 109th minute to seal a commanding win.
LASK's pressure was unrelenting: they finished with 41 shots to Celtic's 8, including 8 on target, and created five big chances to Celtic's one. Celtic had slightly more possession at 51%, but LASK's 5-1 margin was built on far greater threat, with Adeniran's double the standout individual contribution.
