Review
No one could have imagined what was to come in the second half with the score 0-0 at half time.
With the game played in winter conditions in August with heavy rain, Celtic ran riot in the second half to make the second leg a formality after the Hungarians totally collapsed as McGarvey at last shows the form that made Celtic pay £250,000 for him.
In 3 minutes young Bonner made a fine save from Gorgei after a slack pass back from McAdam let the Hungarian forward in.
In 27 minutes McGarvey scored but the goal was correctly disallowed for handball against McCluskey.
The DVTK keeper had looked nervy and in the second half the goals flew past him.
1-0 – McCluskey's cross was spilled by the keeper and McGarvey swept in a low shot.
2-0 – McCluskey headed in a Sullivan cross.
3-0 – McGarvey scored after a run and cross by Burns.
4-0 – Sullivan's shot was blocked on the line and McGarvey swept in the rebound.
5-0 – Brilliant goal after a sweeping MacLeod – McCluskey move and Sullivan drives home a low shot.
6-0 McCluskey scores with another header.
Inexperienced keeper Pat Bonner earned rave reviews after a fine display and several good saves.
