Reo Hatate made it 4-0 with a slotted finish. Once again, Celtic pushed forward with intent and the stand-in right back is relishing his new role. Callum McGregor clipped the ball into Hatate’s path, who sized up whether to pass or shoot before firing the ball beyond Parish.
The linesman put his flag up to rule the goal out but Kevin Clancy consulted VAR and they told him that no offence had been committed. Accordingly, Hatate is now competing with his fellow countryman for a hat-trick.
