Adam Idah rescues Celtic as super sub strikes double as champions repeat Lanarkshire late show - 3 talking points

But just couldn’t find any real rhythm or create any clear cut chances which has been an all too familiar sight for disgruntled supporters. They would have been even if angrier if Georgie Gent had stuck away a good chance after a brilliantly worked move but the on-loan Blackburn Rovers man fired over.

Callum McGregor threaded a ball through for Kyogo in the best first half chance for the visitors but Liam Kelly was quickly off his line and out to deny the Japan star. Then a couple of minutes before half time the champions were stunned as the Steelmen grabbed a deserved lead.

It was a great build up with Rangers on-loan full back Adam Devine slipping it to Lennon Miller and the Motherwell starlet showed great skill to get space and feed Spittal who curled a peach of shot beyond Joe Hart and into the back of the
