Kuhn's second goal wasn't quite as brilliant on an individual level.
Instead, he was in the right place at the right time and converted the ball from a few meters away after a great team move.
“Kuhn reminds me of that more and more Jota,said Tom English, chief sports journalist for BBC Sport Scotland. “The way he moves, his influence on games, his ability to score big goals, but also great goals.”
“He has become an absolutely indispensable player in this team. You couldn’t get tired of watching it.” [first goal]. He just absorbs it from a mile away – if you can do that.”
This second goal meant Kuhn became the first Celtic player since Roy Aitken in October 1979 against Partizani Tirana to score two goals in the first half of a Champions League or European Cup match.
It may not be the most striking statistic from Celtic's statement win, but it shows how rare is what Kuhn has achieved – and the form he is in.
Another former Celtic winger, Aiden McGeady, summed it up on the Scottish football Podcast, saying: “I think the standout player in Scottish football this season was Nicolas Kuhn. Every time he’s on the pitch he impacts the game.”
It may be a little early to christen him 'Saint Nick', but if he keeps up these performances Celtic fans may not see him again after December.
