Celtic extended their advantage at the top of the Scottish Premiership to 11 points as they came from behind to win.
Celtic fans have taken to Twitter to comment on Mikael Lustig’s display in the Hoops’ clash with Partick Thistle on Tuesday night, and many have urged Brendan Rodgers to drop the right-back after the victory.
The Bhoys extended their advantage at the top of the Scottish Premiership as the three points moved them 11 clear of Aberdeen ahead of the Dons’ clash with third place Rangers at Ibrox tonight.
However, Rodgers’ men were made to work extremely hard for the victory as they went into the break 1-0 down thanks to a penalty from Conor Sammon, which he calmly rolled past Craig Gordon.
The penalty came after a couple of errors from Lustig as his poor attempt at a clearance allowed Miles Storey to get past him with the ball, and all the Swede could do to prevent Storey going through on goal was to bring him down, prompting the referee to point to the spot.
Lustig would be taken off at half-time, and Celtic would go on to turn the game around completely, with Scott Sinclair also scoring from the spot before Leigh Griffiths bagged the winner.
And after the game, a number of Celtic fans expressed their desire to see the defender dropped from the side as they felt that his performance was not a one-off, and his form has been questionable for a while now.
