Greg Taylor made it 3-0 to Celtic with a brilliant volley. The left-back made a good forward run, beating the offside trap and found himself on the end of a pass from Paulo Bernardo to put the game out of sight for Celtic.
The pass from Bernardo was exquisite. The 21-year-old clipped it in behind brilliantly to open up the Saints defence and allow Taylor the chance to go through on goal.

Earlier, Celtic went ahead thanks to goals from Daizen Maeda and Matt O’Riley before St Mirren went down to ten men at the end of the first half. Brendan Rodgers will want his team to finish strongly in the last half an hour and go into the winter break with an emphatic win.
