Celtic wipe the floor with creaking Kilmarnock as Yuki Kobayashi catches the eye – 3 talking points

dailyrecord.co.uk

Champions Celtic are marching towards yet another title after their 4-1 thumping to down sorry Kilmarnock. Kyogo got the goals party started in Ayrshire before Daizen Maeda made it two.

Matt O'Riley was on form and netted a double to have the Hoops four clear inside half an hour. Derek McInnes' side were dazed and confused and it could have been worse if Kyogo hadn't cracked the post from the spot kick which followed.

Liam Donnelly capitalised on a rare Callum McGregor error to pull one back before the break. But it was merely a crumb of consolation for a side who are facing a mammoth battle to avoid the drop.

The first moment of hope for the hosts came early as success story Danny Armstrong nutmegged Carl Starfelt before his low cross was hacked clear.
