Celtic have released the unique angle video highlights from the weekends match against Kilmarnock. The Bhoys ran out 2-0 winners in the end and dominated the match so heavily that Derek McInnes’ side only had 20% of the ball and that was mostly their goalkeeper from goal-kicks.
It was proving another difficult day for the Parkhead club as we jostled and harried trying to create spaces and openings where there were none. The set-up to frustrate the team, supporters and managers is now virtually ubiquitous in the Scottish Premiership now as McInnes followed Martindale and his other contemporaries tactics wise anyway.
We managed to get that crucial breakthrough goal just befoe the stroke of half-time and it gave us an extra bounce in our step as we feared it was shaping up to be one of those days. You know the one – we pound the opposing goal mouth only to come away aggravated by the anti-football employed by our counterpart.
A brilliant piece of play down the left-hand side of the field of play culminated in a flashed ball across the box and a Jota and Kyogo stramash. Jota got the all important finishing touch just in front of the diminutive Japan international. Then, to wrap up the points, an own goal was the final blow that saw us maintain our significant gap at the apex of the Scottish Premiership.
Watch the highlights of both goals below.
