Mikey Johnston has made the most of his second half substitute appearance this afternoon by scoring a brace. The Ireland Internationalist came on for Luis Palma, scored one that was aided by poor goalkeeping but quickly added a second.

Coming in from the left, MJ moved in, took advantage of some interplay before firing the shot beyond Carson.

The winger has copped some flak from supporters and the media for some poor performances this season but this outing will have done his confidence no harm.

Celtic will go five clear of Rangers, who play tomorrow evening at home to Ross County, before the teams meet in Glasgow’s East End.
