Jota and Reo Hatate joined in the spirit of the last night’s match by clapping along to the chants of the away supporters that filled up the Global Energy Stadium.
Almost 4,000 Celtic fans made the long journey to Dingwall with the numbers swelled by two substitutes who soaked up the atmosphere as they prepared for two massive fixtures over the next week.

Jota has probably been Celtic’s most influential player this season but Ange Postecoglou demonstrated the depth of his squad by fielding two very acceptable alternatives to the former Benfica man down the left flank.
Daizen Maeda covered every blade of grass in front of Alexandro Bernabei, after he popped in Celtic’s third goal Sead Haksabanovic looked very direct and confident for a new signing that hasn’t played competitive football since the start of June.
On Saturday Jota and Hatate will be centre stage- looking to give 59,000 fans plenty to sing and shout about.
