Celtic-owned Lewis Morgan thrived for St Mirren on Tuesday night.
The international break means that top flight clubs have been out of action, with the focus on major international friendlies ahead of this summer’s World Cup.
However, there were league games going on lower down the pyramid across the world, and Scotland’s St Mirren were in action against Dumbarton on Tuesday night.
The Scottish Championship league leaders are edging towards promotion, and moved a step closer with a 5-0 thrashing of Dumbarton at St Mirren Park.
The main story to come from the game surrounded playmaker Lewis Morgan, who scored twice for St Mirren with two outstanding finishes from outside the box.
His first was a cultured right foot finish into the corner of the net, and his second was a long-range strike on his left foot, arrowing into the top corner as he showed his ability with both feet.
Morgan is entering the final few weeks of his time as a St Mirren player, given that he signed for Celtic in January before returning to St Mirren on loan until the end of the season.
Morgan now has 16 goals to his name this season, and the 21-year-old will be hoping to make a real impact for Brendan Rodgers’ Bhoys side next term.
Celtic fans took to Twitter after seeing Morgan’s goals to rave about their new young talent, with some suggesting that he could replace Scott Sinclair in the Celtic side next season, as many were simply excited to see Morgan in action for Celtic for the first time this summer and next season.
