Celtic extended their domestic unbeaten run to 64 games.
Celtic extended their unbeaten domestic run to 64 games after the Bhoys defeated Ross County in the Scottish Premier League on Saturday.
Brendan Rodgers named a strong starting XI for his side even though they have a Champions League game on Wednesday in Paris.
The likes of Moussa Dembele, Scott Sinclair, and James Forrest were below-par but two substitutes – Leigh Griffiths and Olivier Ntcham – made a huge impact.
Leigh Griffiths scored a stunning free-kick from 25 yards out with just 12 minutes remaining to seal the tie in Celtic’s favour.
Ntcham also hit the post as Celtic applied pressure in the second half.
The Bhoys completely dominated the game and enjoyed a whopping 63% of ball possession. They registered 10 shots and managed 11 corners during the game, according to BBC Sport.
Former Celtic player Simon Donnelly took to social networking site Twitter to praise Griffiths. He has described his performance as “sublime”.
Griffiths has been in fine form this season, and took his goal tally to nine in all competitions for Celtic.
