Celtic edge out Derry in friendly

Pat McCourt shows off his new Celtic strip
The match was part of the deal which saw Pat McCourt moving to Celtic

Celtic's understrength team defeated Derry City 1-0 in Tuesday's friendly clash at the Brandywell.

Ben Hutchinson hit the Celtic winner midway through the second half in a game watched by around 3,000 people.

The match had been arranged as part of Paddy McCourt's transfer from Derry to Celtic during the summer.

McCourt played in a Celtic side that had ex-AC Milan man Massimo Donati. Derry's team was completely changed from Monday's win over Linfield.

Played in atrocious conditions, it was not a match which will live long in the memory.
