Celtic rescued! BBC Scotland struggle to cope with Moritz Jenz goal
It was later than most fans would have wished but it is quite a stretch to claim that an 84th minute goal from Moritz Jenz rescued Celtic yesterday at Ross County.
Every week plenty of teams score around that time, with 77% possession, 23 shots at goal and 12 corners even by the BBC Scotland stats it was one-way traffic towards Ross Laidlaw in the home goal.
Moritz Jenz rescued Celtic with a late goal on his debut as the Scottish Premiership champions rallied to overcome impressive Ross County.

Impressive County had five shots at goal, two on target and three corners over 90 minutes.
Last December there was a very genuine rescue act by Tony Ralston against Ross County, when you nod in the winning goal in the sixth minute of stoppage time it is a rescue act multiplied by the great escape.
Jenz scored with 10 minutes of playing time left, enough time for Liel Abada to score another goal to give a far truer reflection on how the match had been played.
If the BBC were looking for a rescue act they could have turned to a penalty from Stevie May in the fourth minute of stoppage time for St Johnstone to beat Motherwell 2-1.
