Giorgos Giakoumakis made it 2-0 to Celtic after finding himself on the end of a cross from Matt O’Riley. The Greek striker, who scored on Saturday against Alloa Athletic in the Cup, doubled the lead at Tynecastle with a backheel.

O’Riley, who made his debut this evening, looked up and fizzed the ball in towards the front post, allowing Giakoumakis to attack the ball and clip a creative effort beyond Craig Gordon.

Celtic took the lead thanks to a thunderous effort from Reo Hatate and Ange Postecoglou will be hoping that his side can build upon their lead, in what is an extremely tricky ground to visit.
