Man by Man

SCOTT Stayed in BAIN the cup side and rarely was ball as threatened. his feet. Smart with the MIKAEL LUSTIG Took a couple of dull ones early on but dusted himself down to produce a solid display. KRISTOFFER AJER A surprise starter in central defence after a spell out injured but strolled through the game and was cool in possession. FILIP BENKOVIC Big Croatian was so calm he could have left the iron on and he’d just expect to come home to a pair of freshly-pressed slacks. KIERAN TIERNEY The huge Murrayfield pitch suited the full-back as he energetically burst up and down the left flank all day. EBOUE KOUASSI A day to forget. Injured early, limped around, misplaced a few passes and had his haw maws squeezed by Steven MacLean before hobbling off inside half an hour. OLIVIER NTCHAM Took some time to gain control but then was forced to go off at half-time. JAMES FORREST Was frustrated early on but grew in to the game and was a key outlet as Celtic seized control. Razor sharp to make sure for the second. CALLUM McGREGOR Played a leading role with so much chopping and changing. Disciplined, mature display. TOM ROGIC Crowded out in the opening spells but emerged as a big presence once Celtic were ahead and the clash opened up. ODSONNE EDOUARD Led the line unselfishly and peeled wide to leave space for others to exploit. SUBS: SCOTT SINCLAIR The old Scott Sinclair was back. Quick, direct and decisive. RYAN CHRISTIE His best display for Celts topped by a stunning goal. JACK HENDRY On late to keep it tight after the game was wrapped up. NOT USED: Gordon, Hayes, Morgan, Ralston. REFEREE: Willie Collum.
