Celtic’s win over Sevco at Hampden was much more emphatic than the scoreline records.
Brendan Rodgers’ side haven’t been playing to the same heights as last season but in the domestic games that really matter the team has responded in style.
The stats get more and more impressive. Ten games without defeat against Sevco, seven wins on the bounce at Hampden and now just two wins away from a double treble.
There were no major surprises when the Celtic team was announced, all of the players have been through the routine before.
Tom Rogic did what Tom Rogic does, especially against Sevco, quickly followed by another important big match goal from Callum McGregor.
We were then treated to the Andy Halliday panto as the fractured Sevco dressing room rumours exploded into action at the National Stadium.
Two second half penalties and a hat-trick of missed chances from Alfredo Morelos brought the match to a halt with Celtic’s season extended into mid May and the chance of a double treble.
The remainder of the season promises so much for the Celtic players and support, across the city the blood letting is underway with Graeme Murty looking for a way out just like Young McCrorie.
