Liam Scales has fired Celtic into the lead with an excellent strike against Raith Rovers. Ange Postecoglou’s side have dominated from the start and it was an unlikely source for the opener as the Irishman smashed the ball into the back of the net.
Tom Rogic slid the ball across to Scales, who collected the ball at the edge of the eighteen-yard box before dispatching a shot that rattled off the post and into the net.
Ooh that’s a beauty from Liam Scales! 😍

Two goals in twelve appearances for Scales now, who is proving himself as a reliable squad player under Postecoglou. Since the goal, however, Celtic have been slack much to the frustration from the Celtic boss. He will be hoping that his side can rediscover their top form and seal progression to the next round.
