VIDEO: Celtic goalkeeper Gordon makes Karius-like error in Europa League defeat

Craig Gordon was at fault for a bizarre goal during Celtic's 2-1 Europa League defeat to Salzburg on Thursday.

The goal, which put the Austrian outfit 2-0 up at Celtic Park, was reminiscent of the one that saw Karim Benzema cut out Loris Karius' attempted ball out from the back in last season's Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid.

In the 77th minute, the Scottish goalkeeper received the ball in the Celtic box before attempting to quicky roll out to defender Filip Benkovic.

However, Salzburg striker Fredrik Gulbrandsen was on hand to intercept, with Gordon unable to keep out the Norweigan's strike towards an empty net.
