Celtic beat Hamilton Academical 1-0 on Tuesday evening.
Celtic strikers Leigh Griffiths and Moussa Dembele have taken to Twitter after beating Hamilton Academical 1-0 on Tuesday evening.
The Bhoys went into the game having dropped just two points in 14 league games, with Brendan Rodgers enjoying an unbeaten start to the league season.

With a 4-1 win over Partick Thistle on Saturday, Celtic were looking to make it ten league wins in a row against Hamilton Academical – and that’s just what they got, even if it wasn’t quite as convincing as many would have expected.
The big team news before the start of the game was that manager Rodgers had decided to go with both Leigh Griffiths and Moussa Dembele in attack, having rarely used the duo together.

Rodgers’ decision certainly paid dividends though, as Dembele raced clear in the 36th minute from a Tom Rogic pass, and rather than go for goal himself, he teed up strike partner Griffiths to score what proved to be the only goal of the game.
The 1-0 victory means Celtic lie 11 points clear of second-placed Rangers with two games in hand on their Old Firm rivals, and strikers Dembele and Griffiths took to Twitter after the final whistle on Tuesday evening.
Griffiths tweeted praise for Dembele, hailing him for his unselfishness as he set him up for the goal, before celebrating the three points and looking ahead to Saturday’s clash against Dundee.
Dembele also sent a message on Twitter, stating that the team comes before selfishness, and commented on a great team performance and the club’s unbeaten record.
