An emotional day at Celtic park saw Celtic finish their league campaign with a win thanks to a Henrik Larsson double. It was also the last time Larsson would don the green and white hoops in a competitive match at Celtic Park as he made his move to Barcelona in the summer.
The Swede scored 243 goals in all competitions for Celtic in the 7 years he spent at the club.
Was Larsson the best we've seen in recent history?

  • @smck001
    Cannae believe we had him for 7 years, and not one of them taken for granted.
  • @crawbaw705
    I was there that day 😔 A season later I gave up my season ticket. Just wasn’t the same for me anymore. He truly was the king of kings. Like Jinky Johnstone was of my Grandas era.

    This day marked the end of my childhood and the day I realised all good things must come to an end
  • No relationship break up will ever come close to the same level as this man hanging his boots up for the last time for Celtic🍀 Get a lump in your throat every time you watch this😖
  • @lunastarr3418
    I remember being a wee girl and watching this crying because my hero was leaving. This for me was my best era with Celtic. 🥺💚 greatest Celtic player ever in my opinion alongside jinky. And Petrov who ended up with the same cancer my baby daughter had 😢 both have done amazingly well to beat it! Hail hail
  • @starofdavid9919
    Could have walked into any team in Europe, gave Celtic seven wonderful years.
  • @iiiiii6777
    One of the greatest to wear it. The TRUE king. God bless Henrik Larsson ✊💚

    Larsson broke my heart many a time as me being a gers fan. Guy was an incredible player and a model professional, had an amzing career at celtic but glad he went to man utd and barca to show the world that he wasnt overhyped because scottish football is poor. Legend status used too many times on average players these days but no doubt about it he is a legend. Just wish he played for rangers 😂
  • @stevenboyle1422
    Superb talent...we were very lucky to have him for as long as we did...football is money driven now with no loyalty...This man was loyal to Celtic Fc....LEGEND.

  • @The160879
    As a Rangers fan he one of the greatest opponents I’ve ever seen. He had everything and was a complete nightmare at times.
