LORD KATSUMOTO – 7.5/10 MOTM – If you know what you’re getting with Kasper, then Daizen’s been ramping up the reliability this season to those levels of consistency as well. When we needed him, there he was – eclipsing the team’s general toil with classic Daizen moments of improv, explosive impact and ultimately, rescue; cruelly denied his double by blatant sickening skulduggery.

DUNCAN IDAHO – 3/10 – Nope. a backward step. From his first involvement to his ignominious departure in the half-time dressing room, his day was a lobotomised struggle. Neither feet nor body nor mind were at the required levels for a Celtic striker. Out-muscled, slow reactions, and criminally wasteful when his one good contribution petered out with two players open and screaming to be set for a tap-in with a simple pass across the box; never lifted his head. Really needs to step it up with consistency these last dozen games or he’ll be drifting into write-off territory…

TAKINTE – 6/10 – Just that 10% off his top functionality – The killer final ball eluded him even though his dancing feet and gliding acceleration had him in great positions; customary flair and invention was missing. Next time,
Nick.
