THIS is the moment not one but TWO young Celtic fans tried to invade the pitch at Celtic Park during a match against Manchester United Legends.
Stewards rushed to restrain the first youngster but the second managed to run away with a CORNER FLAG – despite slipping as he went to grab it and then falling over the advertising hoarding.

While Michael Carrick, Nani, Dimitar Berbatov and former Scotland captain Darren Fletcher took to the field for United.
But there was one person on the field who shouldn’t have been.
A young Hoops fan was spotted emerging from the Jock Stein stand during the game and he was able to evade security staff and nick a corner flag.
He jumped onto the park to cheers from the crowd but fell as he stepped onto the grass.
The youngster regained his footing and ran another few yards up the touchline with the flag in hand before attempting to leap back over the advertising hoarding.
A few fans winced as he FELL when trying to clear the hurdle, but again he was soon back on his feet and he ran down the tunnel with his arms aloft.
This all happened as stewards were forced to deal with another mischief maker who had leapt over the advertising hoardings but was held back from entering the pitch.
SunSport has contacted Police Scotland for comment.
