Trivia
- Celtic transferred for this one-off game to St Louis. Played at Roosevelt High School Field, St Louis on a Sunday night.

-
Sponsored by the Catholic Youth Council and the Busch-Bavarian Beer company! What a combination!
Review
No clear team listing but Celtic used 14 players with McCarron and Cushley out with injuries, and McNeill rested meant that all the rest of the party would have played at some point. Celtic were 2-0 up after two minutes and 4-0 up at half time with Hughes and Chalmers scoring in the second half.
