CONOR HAZARD 7:
Weekend penalty shootout hero retained his place and dealt with what little came his way well enough. Showed good hands, though wasn’t exactly overworked.
JEREMIE FRIMPONG 8:
Constant threat down the right and produced a brilliant assist for Turnbull for Celtic’s opener.
CHRISTOPHER JULLIEN 7:
Gave Stewart one early sniff of a chance, but was handling him well otherwise until injury forced the striker from the action. Replacement Shaw didn’t come close to troubling him.
KRISTOFFER AJER 7:
Back in his more familiar central defensive role and strolled through the evening. Got a few chances to stride forward too as he loves to do.
DIEGO LAXALT 6:
Industrious enough down the left, but didn’t quite carry the same threat as Frimpong on the other wing. Not bad, but not great either.
ISMAILA SORO 7:
Back in for captain Brown and anchored the diamond midfield well with his customary energy and exuberance.
CALLUM MCGREGOR 8:
Was the fulcrum for much of Celtic’s attacking play and showcased a wonderful range of passing.
RYAN CHRISTIE 7:
Willing to shoot from almost anywhere, which produces a mixed bag of results. Radar a little off here, but still bagged an assist.
DAVID TURNBULL 8:
Got his first league goal for the club with a nice finish to open the scoring, but overall play was impressive again. Celtic fans may be asking why it was deep into winter before they saw him regularly.
ODSONNE EDOUARD 7:
Tried hard to get on the ball and came close on a few occasions.
LEIGH GRIFFITHS 7:
Struggled to find space in the first half, but burst into life after the restart. Missed two great chances before burying more difficult third with fine header.
SUBSTITUTES
OLIVIER NTCHAM 4: Part of triple change for last 20 minutes but couldn’t make impact.
TOM ROGIC 4: Like Ntcham, didn’t really effect the game.
MIKEY JOHNSTON 5: Brightest of the subs, showing tricky feet.
ALBIAN AJETI 3: Not a sniff.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
