Admiration of Kieran Tierney reached new heights last night as he scored a wonder goal while captaining Celtic at the age of 20.
Celtic to the Core seems an understatement with the full-back’s commitment to the club without question.
Dedication to a club can often be used to cover up shortcomings in ability but the opposite is the case with Tierney.
Week by week, game by game the young defender is improving and becoming more influential.

Kieran Tierney has just scored an absolute belter. Goal of the season contender from about 40 yards into the top corner. Outrageous.

Amazingly, last night Tierney was the most experienced defender in the Celtic side just two years after making his breakthrough into the first team.
A suspension for Emilio Izaguirre and the disastrous form of Tyler Blackett opened the door that the kid from Wishaw booted down with style.
After the match Brendan Rodgers was wholesome in his praise for the defender with the Celtic support as one over the emergence of the most talented defender at the club in a generation- or two.
