Scott Brown impressed for Celtic on Saturday – and fans are loving him at the moment.
Celtic thumped second-in-the-table Aberdeen to establish an eight-point cushion over the Dons at the top of the Scottish Premiership on Saturday.
Brendan Rodgers’s side ran out 3-0 winners to further eliminate the prospect that their demoralising 4-0 defeat at Hearts seven days ago, which ended a 69-match unbeaten run, would slightly derail their domestic campaign.
Mikael Lustig opened the scoring on 40 minutes, before Jonny Hayes, who left Aberdeen in a £1.3 million summer move, added a second for what was his first goal for Celtic.
And Olivier Ntcham put the result beyond doubt in the 75th minute to ensure that Rodgers’s troops will boast a healthy advantage at the top during Christmas.
The likes of Ntcham and Hayes will get the headlines, but captain Scott Brown played a huge role in the win and Celtic fans have been raving about his display on Twitter.
