Trivia

  • KO: 12:30; Saturday; Sky TV
  • Celtic are 8pts ahead in the table, but Sevco don’t play in the league this weekend, and so have a game in hand. You could hear the away end fully singing Brendan Rodgers songs & praises towards the end of the match, a clear sign of the growing respect the support is having for him. He has lost a lot of the old egotistical whims so far, and we hope he has learnt lessons from the past.
  • Ahead of @FoundationCFC ‘s annual Christmas Appeal launch on Monday, the #CelticFC first-team once again sport the Appeal logo on the jersey for today’s match.
  • Palma saluting Harry Kewell after his brilliant goal.. Maeda also said he has been a great influence. Bravo!
  • Lot of rotation today with Oh, Turnbull, Yang & Bernardo starting, Johnstone, O’Riley, Palma & Kyogo on bench
  • Forrest’s goal incredibly means he has now scored in FIFTEEN consecutive seasons for Celtic.
  • Celtic actually scored five today but two goals chopped off, one for an incredibly marginal (and some argue dubious) offside, the other agreed by all was wrong to chop off Scales goal for a supposed foul preceding it by Oh!
  • No Green Brigade members at this match as members currently barred from both home and away tickets by Celtic.
  • Israel national manager Alon Hazan brands Celtic fans ‘anti-semitic’, but advised Liel Abada to stay at Celtic and prove the ‘haters’ wrong. Disgraceful nonsense.
  • Ex Celt Charlie Mulgrew wants the vacant St Johnstone managerial job.
  • Brendan Rodgers wants to keep midfielder David Turnbull, who is out of contract at the end of the season. Rodgers says hesitation over a new deal is not coming from the club.
  • Retired footballer Robert Snodgrass reveals he used to wear Celtic gear under his Rangers (RIP) training kit when at Ibrox as a youth player. He never played for either side, but had a noteable career at Hearts and down south.

Summary

“It’s what you want to see and it’s a testament to their professionalism. The intensity that the players show every day is first-class so that means they are ready when they do come in.”
Brendan Rodgers

“Some goals disallowed which I’ll need to see again…it’s given as a no goal, I didn’t see that as a good decision. It was a good performance. Give credit to County. They worked so hard & went man to man. Two goals disallowed. First one Two guys jumping for the ball. Disappointed in that decision. Their keeper had a fantastic game”
Brendan Rodgers

Joebloggscity of TheCelticWiki: credit to VAR today for the red card. That was such a clear red card, and could have ended Yang’s season. How on earth that referee despite being right there in clear view of the foul only originally deemed that foul a yellow card is a disgrace! Yang was very lucky, after a horrendous tackle, and yes, the referee had a clear view of it and only gave a yellow originally, but thankfully overturned by VAR. Got to be honest, strangely I think that Ross County Goalkeeper has actually had a very good game, with some class saves despite having conceded 5 goals (admittedly two ruled out)!

TomMinogue of TheCelticWiki: VAR missed 3 big jersey pulls in the box that were plain to see in real time. Tight offside shown on TV seemed to be frozen after the pass.

Inside The SPFL @AgentScotland What a goal David Turnbull, he’s been the one shining light in that Celtic side today.

Etims: E-Tims @ETimsNet The supporters singing Brendan’s name again. It’s still quite surreal thinking that at the end of last season I never thought in my wildest dreams he’d a) be the manager again & b) fans would be singing his name…and there’s me also now delighted he’s back. God bless Bobby Ewing!
Celtic 39 shots today. The most since 2010. County keeper had the most saves since the creation of the wheel.
Brendan team selection validated again. He had to rotate squad with so many games. All squad players contributed well today. Another three points in the bag. AJ, MOR & Kyogo (a bit) rested. 8 points clear in the League. Bravo. Special praise to Ross County Keeper Laidlaw. One of the finest performances I’ve seen from an opposing keeper in a very long time. Could easily have been 6 or 7-0 if it wasn’t for his outstanding performance. arly merited red card made it easier. Match officials appalling 1st half. Fine Turnbull goal on HT. 2nd half had to keep moving ball & stretching them. Brilliant Palma goal and then Jamesie with a goal, meaning he’s now scored for #Celtic in 15 straight seasons. Amazing

How Celtic benefited from an early red Ross County card to claim three points in Dingwall

Comment

There was one moment during, what was in the end, an entirely comfortable 3-0 victory for Celtic in Dingwall that they would thank the Gods for if replicated in the Metropolitano Stadium on Tuesday.

Brendan Rodgers indulged in a spot of football coaching bingo by suggesting that his team’s assignment in the Highlands was made more awkward through Ross County being reduced to 10 men in little over 10 minutes, and so being forced into full defensive mode. A mess of a mis-timed tackle by James Brown on Yang Hyun-jun, leading VAR to alert referee David Munro to the defender’s studs digging into shin in the unprettiest fashion. Yet, the fact is that Rodgers would relish being presented with such a man advantage for almost the entire contest when sharing the pitch with Atletico Madrid in the Spanish capital.

The perilous predicament that this placed Malky Mackay’s men in at their Global Energy Arena was never going to be one from which they could expect to emerge unscathed. It was fair enough for Mackay to draw some succour from their ability to limit the damage ultimately inflicted as they, inevitably, could not. The County manager was more than a little uncharitable in marginalising the role played by his keeper Ross Laidlaw in that. Of the 39 goal attempts that Celtic fashioned, at least six were prevented from finding the net through brilliance from Laidlaw. And the three times that he was beaten were the product of brilliance by those in Celtic colours. In giving starts to Oh Hyeon-gyu, Paulo Bernardo, David Turnbull, Anthony Ralston and Yang, Atletico were figuring in Rodgers’ thoughts with his team selection. And, in the main, there was no lack of drive or deftness as Celtic probed and played keep-ball as such as Kyogo Furuhashi, Matt O’Riley, Luis Palma and Alistair Johnston watched on from the bench. Even if Palma’s goal-plus assist impact after his 62nd minute introduction turned out to be invaluable to his team.

The surprise element lacking in Celtic’s dominance for 51 minutes was a goal from the visitors. Bizarrely, a carbon-copy of when they opened the scoring on their very previous visit to Dingwall, which came in April. On this occasion, County perhaps benefitted from benevolent officiating over that. It was suprising that Liam Scales firing in after only seven minutes did not lead the VAR operatives to ask referee Munro to have a second look at contact Oh made with Jordan White as they jumped to meet a corner in the lead up to Scales striking. A tussle he had deemed a foul committed on the home player.

The incident was rendered academic when right at the conclusion of first-half added time – or six seconds beyond that point, Mackay noted bitterly in his post-match – Turnbull did what Turnbull does for all-too-little appreciation from his own support: land the ball in the goal from outside the box with shots that seem magnetically pulled towards their target in the truest fashion. Drifting across the front of the box, there was almost a sixth sense about him expertly drilling the ball into a space between Laidlaw and his right-hand post that didn’t seem to exist before he created it.

There appeared an anything-you-can-do element to Palma’s 78th minute second goal. As clean an arcing, and artful, hit as the winger has probably mustered in his career, the ball seemed on a string as it travelled into the top corner from 28 yards. For his next trick, five minutes later, the Honduran danced along the left before delivering a cross that allowed James Forrest to complete that rarest of feats across his 15-year senior career – score with a diving header. Palma’s end-product – he now has four goals and two assists in his short time in Scotland – and his pristine potency is not lost on Rodgers. “He has big quality,” the Celtic manager said. “It was a brilliant strike for the goal. He has that technical quality and confidence to shoot and you see his quality for James’ goal. In that position you pull it back or stand it up. It was a great dink and Jamesy has got the header of his career.”

This final goal made the afternoon remarkable in ways that, in all truth, it was largely not. A fact attributable to it allowing the redoubtable Celtic winger – as with Turnbull, too readily turned on by the club’s support – to bring up 15 consecutive seasons in which he has bagged a goal in the Scottish top-flight. More than that, it brought him only the fourth header of the 102 goals he has netted in that decade-and-a-half. Times change at Celtic but in Forrest they have an endearing constant. Even if his own fans are too often desperate to place his contributions in the past tense.

James Forest makes it 3-0 to Celtic
James Forrest has now scored for Celtic in 15 successive seasons

Brendan Rodgers was impressed by his Celtic side’s “persistence” after they moved eight points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership by breaking down 10-man Ross County.

The hosts lost James Brown to a 10th-minute red card when an ugly, mistimed tackle was reassessed via the monitor.

County retreated into a defensive shell, frustrating the champions until David Turnbull powered in a shot in first-half stoppage time.

The one-way traffic continued, with Luis Palma adding a stunning strike and setting up a James Forrest header.

“The persistence impressed me,” Rodgers said. “Credit to County because they defended well, made it difficult for us, defended man-to-man.

“But I was pleased at the guys who came in, they gave us great energy at the beginning. The guys who came on gave us extra energy and made an impact.”

All you need to know about County
The latest Celtic news & views

A 10th consecutive win for Celtic over County in all competitions was never in doubt after such an early sending-off.

The home side, who are now winless in seven league outings, played with commendable spirit but could not get up the pitch to pose any kind of threat.

The early exchanges were played in a shroud of mist, with Jordan White nodding wide for the hosts and Liam Scales prodding the ball home only for Oh Hyeon-gyu to be penalised for the preceding aerial joust.

David Munro had a good view when Brown lunged into a late challenge on Yang Hyun-jun, catching the winger above the ankle, but the referee was encouraged to review his yellow-card decision and a quick look at the replays resulted in a change of colour.

Depleted County fell into an ultra-defensive formation, camped in protecting their penalty area.

When Celtic did find a way through Ross Laidlaw saved well from Callum McGregor, Scales, Paulo Bernardo and Turnbull, while Oh’s finish was disallowed following a VAR ruling for offside against provider Daizen Maeda.

However, the Highlanders’ resolve was broken in the sixth minute of added time before the interval as Turnbull’s drilled strike from the edge of the box found the bottom corner.

The pattern of play was duplicated in the second half, with County pinned back and Laidlaw kept busy.

The goalkeeper made an impressive double save to deny Kyogo Furuhashi and Yang, then tipped over an effort from Odin Holm.

He could do nothing about Palma’s wonderful goal though, as the Honduran sent the ball dipping and swerving into the net from 25 yards.

Palma enjoyed the moment and was soon celebrating again as he dinked in a clever cross for Forrest to crash in a close-range header, ensuring that he has scored in each of the past 15 seasons for Celtic.

Celtic win at a canter – analysis

County may have fancied their chances of an upset on seeing six changes in the visitors’ line-up, but any such thoughts were soon dispelled after a moment of rashness from Brown.

With Celtic averaging around 80% possession throughout, the match resembled an attack v defence training exercise for long spells.

Oh had the chance to impress his manager but could not find a goal on his first league start of the campaign.

The striker was perhaps unfortunate to be pulled up for the challenge that led to Scales’ effort not counting and the offside TV lines were far from convincing when his first-half celebrations were cut short.

He could scarcely believe it when Laidlaw produced yet another good stop in the dying throes of the game.

Turnbull took his tally for the season to five – three against County – and played a leading role, along with captain McGregor, in the patient dismantling of their opponents.
What they said

Ross County manager Malky Mackay: “It was a sending off. I’ve spoken to [Brown] and he didn’t actually see him. He has apologised to the group, and that’s fine because there was no malice.

“It then causes us a problem playing against a really good team with 10 men. But on a day like this, if we don’t get our tactics right, and the discipline, organisation, and fitness from the players; that could end up seven or eight.

“We had to make sure it didn’t run away from us today, and it didn’t. That is something that will stand us in good stead against the rest of the teams. They have done themselves proud today.”

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers: ” It’s never easy when a team goes down to 10 men – believe it or not – because the spaces are minimal afterwards.

“Celtic are used to quality, and Luis [Palma] has quality. Celtic have always had wingers who can get you off your seat and he certainly does that.”
