Republic of Ireland under-19 midfielder Rocco Vata has followed in his father Rudi's footsteps by making his senior Celtic debut on Wednesday.
The 17-year-old, who has been playing for Hoops' 'B' side, impressed first-team manager Ange Postecoglou during the winter break and was rewarded for his efforts in Celtic's 4-0 win over Hibernian in the Scottish Premiership last night.
