The unwritten rule in football dictates that a player will always score against their former club, even if they were only there on loan.
Celtic have looked the more likely side in the opening exchanges here today, and Ryan Christie has provided the breakthrough with an absolutely stunning goal:

There are a lot of similarities to James Forrest’s goal in the semi final in 2019 in the same fixture, and the way he just opens his foot up to find the far corner is brilliant.
Hopefully this settles the nerves, and another goal could get this killed off pretty quickly.
