Behind Liam Kelly’s goal at Fir Park the Unique Angle from Celtic TV captured more than three brilliant goals in yesterday’s win over Motherwell.
The rawness of the cheers that greeted each goal is unavoidable as the hoops turned things around after a grim first half in which very little was created.
That all changed after the break, after 51 minutes Adam Idah powered in a great header from Greg Taylor’s cross and it was game on.
Celtic’s second and third goals were both channelled down the right with Alistair Johnston and Yang Hyun-jun firing in the crosses that Idah and Luis Palma slotted into the net.
The relief that greeted those goals was something else, the players milked the celebrations to the max, forming a real connection with the fans who had backed them for 90 plus minutes.
As Palma eventually headed back to await a VAR check on his goal the cheering continued with the scoreboard confirming Celtic’s late escape.
Thought Yang was excellent when he came on,still raw as they come,but willing to get at defenders and drive forward,make things happen.He caused panic in the well defence on a few occasions.Needs to find consistency and we will have a serious player on our hands
