Celtic wrapped up their pre-season with an exciting 2-2 draw against AC Milan on August 3, showcasing the talents of Camilo Duran. The Colombian forward not only scored but also assisted in putting Celtic in a strong position before a stunning comeback from the Italians.

Duran opened the scoring with his third goal in three games, capitalizing on a poor back pass from Strahinja Pavlovic to slot home a left-footed shot into the corner. Celtic doubled their lead when James Forrest finished emphatically after Duran's clever cutback, following pressure from Luke McCowan that forced another defensive error.

Heading into halftime, Celtic seemed in control, but the game turned quickly after the break. A mere minute into the second half, Francesco Camarda converted a penalty awarded for a foul by Cameron Carter-Vickers. Just six minutes later, Camarda leveled the match with a well-timed header from a cross by Samuel Chukwueze.

Despite a spirited performance from Celtic's Thomas Hatton, who narrowly missed with a curling shot and forced a late save from the AC Milan goalkeeper, the match ended in a draw.

Celtic manager Martin O'Neil expressed satisfaction with the pre-season, emphasizing Duran's potential impact if he stays injury-free. O'Neil also noted the promise shown by young players like Hatton, hinting at competition for starting positions.
