The more that you look at it the more unlikely it seems!
Celtic TV have uploaded their unique angle coverage from yesterday’s win over Dundee United with the camera perfectly placed to highlight Jota opening the scoring.
Aaron Mooy’s deep cross caused Mark Birighitti all sorts of problems but the Dundee United keeper couldn’t have accounted for the technique of his opponent.
Jota seems almost on the goal-line, the wrong side of the post, when he puts his head onto the cross, somehow he manages to head the ball forward into the net from what appears to be an almost impossible angle.

After a goal-less first half that goal from Jota was exactly what the visitors needed, away from home getting the first goal is priceless. All of the opponents plans are geared on shutting down space and frustrating Ange Postecoglou’s side.
Five minutes after Jota’s goal Aaron Mooy scored from the penalty spot as Celtic took control of the match, restoring their nine point advantage at the top of the SPFL Premiership.
That Jota header was worthy of the King of Kings himself.
Larssonesque!
A great goal, a great reaction from the fans!
