Celtic were in an aggressive mood as they bounced back from last weekend’s defeat to St Johnstone. The Scottish Champions scored four goals in 25 minutes, including two absolutely stunning strikes from Reo Hatate and Cameron Carter-Vickers.
The game, which is live on Sky Sports, has been excellent as Celtic look to put one hand on the title with a win this afternoon.
Hatate opened the scoring with a special right footed strike, cutting in from Celtic’s left and firing a shot beyond O’Hara.

Daizen made it 2-0 with the easiest of finishes. Arne Engels held onto the ball well, which allowed for marauding Alistair Johnston to fire a cross across the face of the goal. It ricocheted between Killie players and fell on a plate for the Japanese hitman at the back post.
😮💨 Maeda makes it TWO!

Next up was a collector’s item from Cameron Carter-Vickers. The USA Internationalist collected the ball around 25 yards from goal then fired a vicious shot into the top corner.

It was 4-0 shortly afterwards as Hatate scored his second of the afternoon. Celtic moved the ball well, allowing Hatate to take a touch, set himself and score the fourth Celtic goal within 25 mins.

Danny Armstrong pulled one back with a floated effort that deceived Sinisalo.
