00:00:00Thanks to Benjamin and to Callum for their time,
00:00:02although it's worth pointing out that Benjamin is wrong.
00:00:05Pineapple does not belong on a pizza. No chance.
00:00:08Celtic the Musical is back.
00:00:10If you haven't been before, then get yourself to the Pavilion Theatre in Glasgow.
00:00:14Get yourself tickets.
00:00:15They've been here at Celtic Park this week, getting ready in rehearsals.
00:00:21There's a story that lives in the heart of every Celtic fan.
00:00:25A story of community, of pride and of triumph against the odds.
00:00:30And this September, that story comes to life again on stage.
00:00:34And for the first time ever, rehearsed right here in Paradise.
00:00:40Big jock got the players wearing the jersey again with pride.
00:00:45And he told the press...
00:00:46Celtic jerseys are not for second best.
00:00:49They don't shrink to fit inferior players.
00:00:52How old are you, the director of Celtic the Musical?
00:00:54What does it mean to bring this fantastic show back in 2025?
00:00:58Uh, yeah. Amazing. Amazing.
00:01:00Um, fourth time.
00:01:03We started in 2016, we did it again in 2018, and then 2022.
00:01:08So, amazing. Comeback 2025.
00:01:11Uh, whole new ending, all the stuff that's gone on.
00:01:1425 years of dominance, really hitting all that sort of stuff.
00:01:18Rehearsing in Celtic Park.
00:01:20How's that?
00:01:23Julie, you've played the role of the mum every version of this show.
00:01:27You've also been in the Christmas ad.
00:01:29You're known to Celtic fans around the world with this show.
00:01:33But what brings you to come back to this every single time?
00:01:35Well, it's just that it is such a beautiful experience.
00:01:40I mean, it's great being on the stage, it's a great story, fantastic music, a brilliant band.
00:01:45But the fans that come to see us, it's like a big love-inj, you know?
00:01:51You just feel it from them.
00:01:52And, um, you go home and just feel, like, really, you know, it really lifts you, you know?
00:01:58Everyone feels lifted after the show.
00:02:00And, of course, um, you've spoken about those new things in the show 25 years of dominance.
00:02:04Tell us a little bit more about that and what can the fans expect to see who come along this time that have saw the show before.
00:02:10Yeah, so we're really keen to sort of hit it for Martin O'Neill and move it right up to now.
00:02:15It's 2025. I've got what year it was.
00:02:182025. Just hit that 25 years because it's such a fantastic era.
00:02:23Um, and it's nine years as we started, so we want to move the show on from where it was in 2016 and everything that's happened.
00:02:30Stephen, Alicia, you're both playing the role of Paddy and Rosie, the dad and the daughter, in the show.
00:02:36It's your first time in the show, Stephen.
00:02:38Tell us, how has your experience been of this so far and how much you've gotten forward to it?
00:02:42Well, I've been having a lot of goosebumps, you know, when you get to sing Celtic songs all day for a living.
00:02:47It's pretty decent, you know?
00:02:49So I'm excited, you know, my dad passed away in May and he loved this show.
00:02:54So it's probably the main reason that I'm involved in it and I really wanted to be involved in it as a wee nod to him, you know?
00:03:01So, um, yeah, I'm loving it so far.
00:03:05These guys are all brilliant, having a good laugh, you know, I mean, as it should be.
00:03:08So, yeah, it's great.
00:03:09Walked into this job and it's felt really familiar and it is lovely singing songs, you know, so it's going to be great.
00:03:16From Brother Walfred's vision to the modern-day champion, Celtic the Musical tells the story of the club like never before, with laughter, tears and all the songs you know by heart.
00:03:29Opening night is September 4th at Glasgow's Pavilion Theatre.
00:03:33Be part of it.
00:03:34Yeah, if you're in the Glasgow area, well worth a visit to see Celtic the Musical.
00:03:46So, just waiting for the teams coming back out for the second half.
00:03:51Callum McGregor and the rest of the substitutes out on the pits just now, which would suggest, um, Simon, that there's not going to be any immediate changes.
00:04:00But would Callum be one of the players you'd expect to see at some point in the second half, especially if the score remains nothing-nothing?
00:04:06Yeah, especially if the score stays at 0-0, Gerry.
00:04:09I think he'll look to the experience and the quality that he's got on the bench.
00:04:13Just had confirmation there will be no changes at half-time.
00:04:15Right, OK, so Yang's obviously recovered from his knock.
00:04:18Yeah, I think if it stays the same 15-20 minutes in, I think the manager will look to the quality that's sitting on the bench to come on.
00:04:27I think in an ideal world, we'll get an early goal in the second half and he won't have to lean on the guys there because obviously there's an important game on Tuesday.
00:04:34But I would suspect, around about the hour, Mark, maybe freshen up a little bit.
00:04:38Yeah, it's just worth reminding people about the substitutes.
00:04:42So in terms of from a mid to front, you've got Callum McGregor, Rayo Hattati, Johnny Kenny, Dyson Lader and James Forrest on the bench alongside Kieran Tierney, Colby Donovan, Cameron Carter-Vickers.
00:04:53So plenty of experience on that.
00:04:54The manager did say he'd made some changes with Tuesday's trip in mind just in terms of keeping the players fresh.
00:05:01It's a long trip, 3,500 miles.
00:05:04Yes, they will be, you know, they're not going to be travelling economy, so they will have a comfortable journey.
00:05:09But it's still, in terms of, you know, being an athlete at this level, they need to keep moving.
00:05:14So it will be something that will have an effect.
00:05:17No further changes to the Livingston side, but I imagine for both managers, it will be a case of freshening things up in the second half.
00:05:25Livingston haven't shown anything as an attacking force, but, you know, as the game goes on, tends to get stretched, set pieces.
00:05:30You never know what can happen.
00:05:32For Celtic, though, Simon, it's all about getting a goal as soon as he can.
00:05:35Yeah, definitely.
00:05:36I think from Livingston's point of view, David Martindale will stay in the game as long as he can,
00:05:41maybe look to push things forward towards the end of the game.
00:05:44He'll be happy that the onus is on Celtic to go and replicate that last 10, 15 minutes,
00:05:49cause a little bit of chaos in that back line against Livingston and take a chance or two.
00:05:55All right, here come the boys.
00:05:56Let's go back to our boys in the Celtic TV gantry.
00:05:59Peter Grant and Dylan Doherty.
00:06:01Thank you, Gerry and Simon.
00:06:03Yep, no changes from either side, so the task is, as it was before half-time, get a goal and get the ball rolling.
00:06:11Let's hope Celtic can do that.
00:06:13Yang seems to have recovered.
00:06:14I'm sure he'll be assessed as he continues on.
00:06:17But Livingston, as Gerry has just said, they haven't really offered much.
00:06:22They have only won one of their last 28 away games in the Scottish Premiership, so they're going to have to do something to try and buck that trend.
00:06:31Hopefully, it's not going to be added to it today.
00:06:35Luke McEwen stands over the ball and we get the second half underway.
00:06:42And they do.
00:06:43Let's hope Celtic can get a few goals in the second half and get the three points.
00:06:48And really just send the home support happy.
00:06:54I think that's so important.
00:06:55I think that the tempo of the game has got to go again, start very quick.
00:06:58If we slow the game down, it allows Livingston just to be shuffling the way they are at this moment in time.
00:07:02I would get it.
00:07:03Simon and Gerry touched on it.
00:07:04Get the ball wide.
00:07:05Get the ball in the box.
00:07:07Cause a little bit of mayhem in there.
00:07:08And you never know.
00:07:09The ball can be off a second ball that the ball drops in the box.
00:07:12It doesn't matter.
00:07:14Now here's Negrin.
00:07:15Just looking to thread the ball through.
00:07:18Now it looks like the pattern from the first half is going to continue.
00:07:23Celtic all the possession to try and break this low block that Livingston have.
00:07:29Negrin.
00:07:31For Bernardo.
00:07:34Celtic move it around.
00:07:35That was a good pass from Inamura, but his teammates weren't on the same wavelength.
00:07:40That was a very good pass.
00:07:41I'm so surprised because Arnie Ingles is one that's usually aware of that pass.
00:07:46And it's a right pass because exactly what we said, if we keep the width, they think you're going to go away.
00:07:51Then you get that opportunity to play into midfield.
00:07:53And Arnie Ingles, I was surprised he was caught on his heels there.
00:07:56But Inamura made the right pass.
00:08:00That man is your own priority.
00:08:02He may have the save of the season so far.
00:08:04And it's only match day three.
00:08:05That was an incredible save from Yang's diving header.
00:08:10It would have been an old school diving header goal.
00:08:12You don't see much of them, as you say, Peter, nowadays.
00:08:15No, you definitely don't.
00:08:17That's a lovely turn from Negrin.
00:08:19Can he carry the ball on?
00:08:20He does.
00:08:22Going to have to find the pass.
00:08:23It's just a bit behind Yang.
00:08:25It's good work from the Swede.
00:08:27Yang gets inside.
00:08:28Goes for the shot.
00:08:29It's parmed away.
00:08:30And there, Benjamin Negrin to tap the ball home.
00:08:34And that's the breakthrough that Celtic would have wanted.
00:08:39He's got the goal at Fatondri.
00:08:41He's got the goal in paradise.
00:08:43It's Celtic 1.
00:08:44Livingston now.
00:08:45Well, to be fair, to Negrin, he's taken the ball himself.
00:08:48He's caught inside.
00:08:49You think he's been into trouble.
00:08:51But he's got the ball away.
00:08:52To be fair, to Yang, he's kept the win.
00:08:54You can see when Negrin gets the ball here, he drives at him.
00:08:57This is the time when he cuts in.
00:08:58You think he's lost possession.
00:08:59He manages to keep it.
00:09:00Yang's a little bit wider.
00:09:01Gets the ball.
00:09:02But then you can see he never stops.
00:09:04Negrin.
00:09:04He's in, has the shot.
00:09:05And he gets his luck.
00:09:06Because he follows in.
00:09:08He's the only one that follows in.
00:09:10So, great credit to him.
00:09:12And he gets his goal.
00:09:13The second goal of the season for Negrin.
00:09:16The goal was all about the Swede.
00:09:19He made the goal from the start of the move.
00:09:21He finishes off.
00:09:23And Celtic getting an all-important breakthrough
00:09:26at the start of the first half.
00:09:28Benjamin Negrin gets the goal.
00:09:30I think it's important.
00:09:31I'm not sure if it will be Shin running across the line
00:09:34as the goalkeeper.
00:09:35I don't know if that's what they're going to look at here.
00:09:37But I'm sure it's a goal.
00:09:38And there's a goal.
00:09:43Celtic have the lead.
00:09:44And you're saying, get a goal.
00:09:46Get the ball rolling.
00:09:47And Celtic have done exactly that.
00:09:49Peter Grant, that's exactly what Brendan Rodgers
00:09:51would have wanted after his half-time team talk.
00:09:54I have absolutely no doubt of that.
00:09:55Listen, to be fair, I was saying about Negrin
00:09:58and that getting crosses in the box and whatever.
00:10:00But what he'd done very well, when he made the pass,
00:10:02he just didn't stand still.
00:10:04Everybody else watched the ball.
00:10:05He filled in an area where the back line,
00:10:08their opposite left-sided centre-back Danny Walson
00:10:10will be really disappointed
00:10:11because he'd just watched the ball.
00:10:13Negrin didn't.
00:10:13He follows in, puts the ball in the back.
00:10:15A fantastic start to the second half.
00:10:18Now, that just makes things feel a whole load better.
00:10:24Can Celtic add a bit more.
00:10:27There's the goal scorer, Benjamin Negrin.
00:10:30He's caught the eye of the Celtic supporters.
00:10:32I think you also put a cursor on the goalkeeper.
00:10:39We're saying he had the best save of the season so far.
00:10:40Well, I'm glad I did.
00:10:41Did you say that again, please?
00:10:43Here's Negrin.
00:10:46And this time, Kevin Clancy does give the foul.
00:10:49Well, he has been impressive.
00:10:51He had a really good goal at Petaudry.
00:10:54Himself and Kieran Tierney really made that goal.
00:10:58But a bit of a more easier take for him.
00:11:00But he did have to make it from the start, Peter.
00:11:03And he's the only one following in.
00:11:05So he gets his reward.
00:11:06Well, what I liked about him in the first game,
00:11:07if you remember, against St. Myrna,
00:11:08I think he should have scored.
00:11:09They take a touch on the ball and he should have scored.
00:11:12I thought he should have hit it first time.
00:11:13The game at Petaudry hits it first time and gets a goal.
00:11:16And then he's the only one that follows in today.
00:11:18So great credit to him.
00:11:19And it's a fantastic knack to have as a midfield player
00:11:21to get in the box and score goals.
00:11:25Neil Livingston, in terms of trying to frustrate Celtic,
00:11:29the game plan for that will now go out the window.
00:11:32They're going to have to open up
00:11:34and try and take the game to the champions
00:11:36if they want to get a point or maybe more out of it.
00:11:40A long throw from Daniel Finlayson.
00:11:44Comes in.
00:11:45Here he is again.
00:11:46Ralson just has to be careful here.
00:11:49Here's Winter.
00:11:54Stevie May just can't get a hold of that.
00:11:56And now Celtic try and hit Livingston on the transition.
00:12:01Engels, Yang, had made the move,
00:12:03but it's good covering from Sammy Lowell.
00:12:08Here's Negrin now.
00:12:11Shun fighting away,
00:12:13but he's didn't come away with it,
00:12:15but here's Scales.
00:12:18Has impressed so far.
00:12:21Not just in his defensive work,
00:12:23but in his distribution from the back as well.
00:12:26Bernardo just on his heels,
00:12:27but manages to pick the ball up.
00:12:30Dane Murray.
00:12:34It's to be another accomplished player from the academy.
00:12:44Clear the way by Pittman.
00:12:45For Bernardo.
00:12:47For McEwen.
00:12:49His touch just lets him down,
00:12:50but can he retrieve it?
00:12:52Stevie May.
00:12:53He goes right into the advertising boards there.
00:12:56Look, McEwen.
00:12:58He's slid on the surface.
00:12:59Hopefully he's okay.
00:13:01He's back to his feet,
00:13:02but he's feeling that one.
00:13:03Raulston.
00:13:08Marble.
00:13:12Engels now pushes it out wide to Inamura.
00:13:17Engels.
00:13:19See McEwen on the far side.
00:13:22Just slight gingerly.
00:13:23Here he is.
00:13:25Raulston can he keep this ball in play?
00:13:27Anthony Raulston is lofted.
00:13:29And Pryor just watches it out the sky.
00:13:31Yeah, Tony's done the right thing.
00:13:34People say the closer you are to the byline,
00:13:36usually try and lift it to the back post.
00:13:39But believe it or not,
00:13:40it'd be probably better going to the front post
00:13:41because I think it's Shinit's made that run
00:13:43by the front post and he got free.
00:13:48Inamura.
00:13:50Find scales.
00:13:54It's a good play from Inamura.
00:13:56Good awareness.
00:13:59The selection of the pass has been excellent at the time.
00:14:01You know, OK, we quit.
00:14:02We don't know centre-back or left-back,
00:14:04but he's played it very comfortably.
00:14:06Here's Yang.
00:14:08Good ball into the box.
00:14:09It's Shinit.
00:14:10Big chance for the striker.
00:14:12Just couldn't get the connection right.
00:14:15And there's a round of applause around the stadium.
00:14:18That's good football from Celtic.
00:14:19Listen, they're exactly what I'm saying.
00:14:21In the wide area,
00:14:22ball in first time,
00:14:23all strikers love it.
00:14:24Then it's just Amari putting the ball in the back.
00:14:26He's very unlucky.
00:14:27He's tried to guide it
00:14:28with his left foot.
00:14:30If he's in the right area,
00:14:31but yes,
00:14:32and he'll be delighted
00:14:33that Yang's put the ball in early.
00:14:35That's what we're talking about.
00:14:36Simon touched on it at half-time as well.
00:14:38Any striker will tell you
00:14:39the more balls that come in the box,
00:14:41the more chance you've got to score.
00:14:42I think it would be fantastic
00:14:43if Shinit could mark his first competitive start.
00:14:47He's a Celtic player with a goal.
00:14:49His movement's been really rewarding of it.
00:14:52Hopefully he does get that this afternoon.
00:14:56Enamura picks the ball out.
00:14:58Negrin does well.
00:15:01Writes the challenge.
00:15:02He's got Ralston with him now.
00:15:04Anthony Ralston looks for the return of Negrin.
00:15:06We're in the box now.
00:15:07I think that was just played off.
00:15:11Benjamin Negrin
00:15:12and it goes for a goal kick,
00:15:14but great intensity about Celtic
00:15:16at the start of this second half, Peter.
00:15:18Yeah, listen,
00:15:18I think there have been more runs forward.
00:15:20There have been more balls forward
00:15:21turning the opposition round.
00:15:23I mean, you're playing against a back five.
00:15:24You've got to get them facing their own goal.
00:15:26And that's exactly...
00:15:26Benjamin Negrin's making their runs in behind.
00:15:29It's good defending with Stevie May,
00:15:30to be fair of him.
00:15:32And he gets his fortune.
00:15:33But yet again,
00:15:34we've pushed him back
00:15:35because you're not playing in front of them all the time.
00:15:37He'll be happy
00:15:41that he might not have to call on his bench so quickly.
00:15:45As Callum McGregor warmed up.
00:15:48I'm sure we'll see the captain at some point.
00:15:52Yeah, but I think it's important that Bernardo,
00:15:54you've got to look at him and say,
00:15:55right, as long as the game,
00:15:57we feel we're in the front of the game,
00:15:59obviously.
00:16:00And we know livings are always dangerous
00:16:01because all they need is a set play.
00:16:03It's not as if they're going to create chance after chance,
00:16:05but they will look for set plays,
00:16:07you know,
00:16:07or a mistake.
00:16:08There's no doubt of that.
00:16:09So as long as it's one there,
00:16:10they'll be quite comfortable.
00:16:11If it goes to Tunehill,
00:16:13I'd be a bit loathed if I was Brendan.
00:16:14I would keep Bernardo on there
00:16:15and keep Callum.
00:16:17You know,
00:16:17he has played that position
00:16:19really well this afternoon.
00:16:21That moment in the first half
00:16:23where there was a bit of pressure on him
00:16:24and he was very aware
00:16:25what was coming.
00:16:27Here's McKewen,
00:16:28looks for the run of Engels.
00:16:30That'll go for a corner,
00:16:31but Bernardo has played well
00:16:32in that position.
00:16:36And Engels look to go quick for the corner.
00:16:39Callum comes into the box.
00:16:41And here is Bernardo,
00:16:43goes down.
00:16:45Still alive here from Negri.
00:16:48And he goes away.
00:16:49And Bernardo looks still on the ground.
00:16:54And the referee goes over to check on him.
00:16:56That might have been a free kick there, Peter.
00:16:58Yeah, I don't know if the referee
00:16:59just plays an advantage here.
00:17:05It's definitely a free kick,
00:17:06but because he's played
00:17:07maybe the advantage in Negri
00:17:09and has the effort,
00:17:11maybe the referee's just allowed it to play.
00:17:13Good game so far
00:17:20from Paolo Bernardo.
00:17:21Obviously came back late
00:17:22from pre-season
00:17:23due to his involvement
00:17:24in the European Championships
00:17:25at the under-21 level.
00:17:31And it looks like
00:17:32James Forrest will be joining us
00:17:34shortly, Peter.
00:17:35I'm looking at Luke McCown here.
00:17:37It could be the fact
00:17:38that he goes in there
00:17:38and he goes in one.
00:17:40Because Luke McCown
00:17:40looks like he's struggling.
00:17:41He's struggling a bit, isn't he?
00:17:42It's that run
00:17:44into the advertising board.
00:17:47It's likely going to end
00:17:48Luke McCown's game,
00:17:49which is a shame.
00:17:53So Negri will likely
00:17:54go into his more central position.
00:17:57Can Ralston pick that ball up?
00:18:01He's been down as well now.
00:18:04And that's what we don't want.
00:18:05Just a couple more injuries
00:18:07before the very long flight.
00:18:10I think Ralston will be fine.
00:18:14It'll take more than that
00:18:15to keep Ralston down.
00:18:16I think Luke's race is run here.
00:18:18Benjamin Negan will step in
00:18:19and James will go wide.
00:18:21I think there's going to be
00:18:22more changes.
00:18:23Peter, we've got Dyson Maeda
00:18:25and Kyle McGregor down there.
00:18:27So, it could be a trifecta of changes
00:18:31for the champions.
00:18:34And Luke McCown will be
00:18:35the first to make way.
00:18:37So, we suspect that he will
00:18:39go off.
00:18:41Forrest will move wide.
00:18:42And Shin has had a very bright game.
00:18:45He doesn't get that goal,
00:18:47but Dyson Maeda,
00:18:48fellow countryman,
00:18:49he will replace him.
00:18:51And Paulo Bernardo's race
00:18:52has run as well.
00:18:53He comes off
00:18:53and he will be replaced
00:18:57by the captain,
00:18:59Callum McGregor.
00:19:00Good performance from Shin,
00:19:06but Maeda,
00:19:09six goals he's got
00:19:10against Livingston.
00:19:11He'll be looking to add to that
00:19:12before time is up.
00:19:14Yeah, Shin's done really well
00:19:16in the respect to that.
00:19:17He's worked the line really well.
00:19:18Probably never the amount of service
00:19:20that he'd be looking for
00:19:21when there was opportunity to do so.
00:19:23He can go home happy
00:19:24with his performance.
00:19:26Yeah, I know a lot of work
00:19:27from Shin
00:19:28and definitely
00:19:30one to watch.
00:19:32Looks like he's got
00:19:33a good few attributes.
00:19:38The captain
00:19:38is his first touch.
00:19:40Header on to Negrin.
00:19:43So both in that
00:19:44and now
00:19:44players on the pitch
00:19:45get up to speed
00:19:46very quickly.
00:19:49Which I'm sure
00:19:49they will do.
00:19:52Almost an hour gone.
00:19:53Benjamin Negrin
00:19:54with
00:19:55the goal
00:19:56for Celtic.
00:19:58just after
00:20:00half-time.
00:20:04That's
00:20:04Callum McGregor.
00:20:08Hasn't scored
00:20:09against Livingston
00:20:09since
00:20:102020.
00:20:11Here's Negrin.
00:20:13Gets the ball into the box
00:20:13looking for Maeda.
00:20:14It's headed away
00:20:15by McGowan.
00:20:16Inamura.
00:20:18What a shot that was.
00:20:19And it's
00:20:20found its way
00:20:21through to the goalkeeper.
00:20:22Like a pinball in there
00:20:25from that shot
00:20:26by Inamura.
00:20:29Yeah, but even small
00:20:30things like that
00:20:30we're talking about
00:20:31in the first half
00:20:31that ball can
00:20:32ricochet anywhere.
00:20:34So I have no problem
00:20:35with that whatsoever.
00:20:36I think the manager's
00:20:37made the substitutions
00:20:38with the boys
00:20:38that he felt
00:20:39had not had a lot
00:20:40of minutes.
00:20:40He talked about
00:20:41Bernardo not having
00:20:42a lot of minutes
00:20:42since the season started
00:20:44so that's maybe
00:20:44why he's tearing them off.
00:20:46Forest
00:20:47keeps it in.
00:20:49Ball comes back in.
00:20:50Maeda and Negrin
00:20:51were in there
00:20:52and it is a corner kick
00:20:53for Celtic.
00:21:03Both of them
00:21:04were causing
00:21:05a bit of confusion
00:21:06in there.
00:21:09Arna Engels
00:21:10goes over
00:21:11to take the corner kick
00:21:13so a chance
00:21:14to deliver
00:21:15once again
00:21:16for the Belgian.
00:21:24Can somebody
00:21:25get their head on this one?
00:21:26It's a low corner
00:21:26scales flicks it on.
00:21:28Cal McGregor
00:21:29picks up the ball
00:21:30in Forrest.
00:21:34Well done
00:21:34from Forrest.
00:21:35Yang gets into the box.
00:21:37He's cleared away
00:21:38into the danger area
00:21:40from Yang.
00:21:43That's been good
00:21:49the fact that
00:21:50we've not taken
00:21:50that extra touch
00:21:51and we've got wide
00:21:51we've delivered it now.
00:21:53As I say
00:21:53we're getting corners
00:21:54we're getting free kicks
00:21:55we've got our goals
00:21:55from it.
00:21:58I think it's important
00:21:59now that your friend
00:22:00Livingston's causing
00:22:01it's causing him
00:22:01a problem
00:22:02because the ball's
00:22:03moving so quick
00:22:03and going so wide.
00:22:04Ralfston with a good
00:22:05delivery
00:22:06Yang's in there
00:22:07again
00:22:07it's well defended
00:22:08once again
00:22:09Kanan Amura
00:22:11the ball back
00:22:14scales now
00:22:15pushes forward
00:22:18brilliant from scales
00:22:19that's a lovely ball
00:22:20it's dangerous
00:22:21James Forrest is in there
00:22:22a chance now
00:22:24Cal McGregor's
00:22:25wide open here
00:22:26here's Yang
00:22:28good presence of mind
00:22:29from the captain
00:22:30and he just
00:22:32goes all wrong
00:22:34for Yang
00:22:34in the end
00:22:35there
00:22:35just couldn't
00:22:35bamboozle the defender
00:22:36McGregor plays the ball
00:22:40off Scylla
00:22:40see if they can have
00:22:42the throw in
00:22:43I don't know if Yang's
00:22:47feeling a little bit
00:22:48in front of us here
00:22:49I'm just watching him
00:22:50here
00:22:50especially having
00:22:52so little wide players
00:22:53just got to be careful
00:22:55I think
00:22:55here's Anamura
00:23:00good ball into the box
00:23:02here's Negrin
00:23:03with another chance
00:23:04but
00:23:06Jerome Pryor
00:23:07gets on top of it
00:23:09but another chance
00:23:10for the Swedish midfielder
00:23:11yeah he makes that
00:23:12late run
00:23:12it's a great ball
00:23:13in
00:23:13his first touch
00:23:17he just got away
00:23:17from him
00:23:18you know
00:23:18yet again
00:23:20ball in the box
00:23:21good defending
00:23:24from Murray
00:23:25scales
00:23:26Dean Murray
00:23:26has to be said
00:23:27he's looked solid
00:23:29and it's so important
00:23:30that he have that
00:23:31concentration
00:23:31and Anamura
00:23:32just gave the ball
00:23:33away as a
00:23:33disgust
00:23:35concentration
00:23:36he was
00:23:37Pittman
00:23:37well challenged
00:23:42from Engels
00:23:43but
00:23:43the referees
00:23:44gave a foul
00:23:45I don't think
00:23:47Engels can believe that
00:23:48I think
00:23:54it's fair
00:23:55because
00:23:55it's a Celtic ball
00:23:57if it isn't
00:23:58well
00:23:59Livingston have an opportunity
00:24:00this will be
00:24:01one that they think
00:24:04they can
00:24:04try and
00:24:05make a shot
00:24:07if they can get one
00:24:08they've had none
00:24:09on
00:24:09none at all
00:24:11never mind one on target
00:24:13so can they make
00:24:14Kasper Schmeichel
00:24:15you don't talk too early now
00:24:16come on
00:24:17have a chance
00:24:19to make a save
00:24:20Stevie May
00:24:24delivers the ball
00:24:25onto the box
00:24:25and it's headed
00:24:26up into the air
00:24:28by Anamura
00:24:28Schmeichel has to
00:24:30punch the ball
00:24:30some uncertainty
00:24:33in that Celtic defence
00:24:34that's why it always
00:24:38gives them hope
00:24:38because of the size
00:24:39and they've got
00:24:40good delivery
00:24:40you know
00:24:42you're just hoping
00:24:43that you don't give
00:24:44too many free kicks
00:24:45I'm sure Brendan
00:24:45will have spoken
00:24:46about the fact
00:24:46don't kick the ball
00:24:47out into areas
00:24:48even for throw-ins
00:24:49into areas
00:24:50that can hurt you
00:24:50you know
00:24:51clear it up the line
00:24:52more than out the pitch
00:24:53and vice versa
00:24:54stay on your feet
00:24:55and don't give
00:24:56silly set plays away
00:24:56because that
00:24:57as long as it's 1-0
00:24:58they're always a threat
00:24:59in that respect
00:25:00Anamura
00:25:02for Yang
00:25:03Ayato Anamura
00:25:09and Murray now
00:25:12she'll take
00:25:13move the ball
00:25:14from left to right
00:25:14from near to far
00:25:16here's Forrest
00:25:18for McGregor now
00:25:20good play from Celtic
00:25:28Engels
00:25:28and Negrin
00:25:29Linkert
00:25:29just the final ball
00:25:32from Engels
00:25:32goes alright
00:25:34still on Celtic 1
00:25:36Livingston 0
00:25:37here in Paradise
00:25:39as we see this
00:25:41opportunity again
00:25:42it's one of the
00:25:44ones
00:25:44his effort
00:25:46and his commitment
00:25:47has been excellent
00:25:47Aaron Engels
00:25:48his quality has not
00:25:49been at the levels
00:25:50that you expect
00:25:50from someone like him
00:25:51he's passing
00:25:53and that comes
00:25:53from game time
00:25:54getting that legs
00:25:55and we know how
00:25:56difficult it is
00:25:56when you're in and out
00:25:57the team
00:25:57especially in that
00:25:58engine room
00:25:59as you say
00:26:00set play delivery
00:26:01was excellent
00:26:02last week
00:26:02whatever
00:26:03Scales and Engels
00:26:06were both going
00:26:06for the same ball
00:26:07but Celtic did
00:26:08come away with it
00:26:09in the end
00:26:10I mean you don't
00:26:12mind that
00:26:13see listen
00:26:13somebody doesn't
00:26:13give you a shout
00:26:14you've got to go
00:26:14for it
00:26:15and I know
00:26:15people are saying
00:26:16well you should
00:26:16get out of the road
00:26:17but you can't
00:26:18as a midfield player
00:26:18you have to go
00:26:19for it
00:26:19if you don't
00:26:20get that call
00:26:21here's
00:26:22Mohamed Silla
00:26:23powering forward
00:26:24and
00:26:26seem to get
00:26:26a little nick
00:26:27from the captain
00:26:28oh I think
00:26:30to be fair
00:26:31I think to Callum
00:26:32I think he stepped
00:26:33out of the road
00:26:33and then Silla
00:26:34continued on
00:26:35if you watch here
00:26:36look
00:26:38I don't know
00:26:41what the referee's saying
00:26:42well well well
00:26:45a bit of a delayed
00:26:49reaction
00:26:49yeah but he's
00:26:50standing watching
00:26:51that
00:26:51Callum's
00:26:52you can see
00:26:53Callum actually
00:26:53has come out
00:26:54the road
00:26:54because I think
00:26:54he's learnt
00:26:55from another
00:26:55evening
00:26:55just probably
00:26:56a silly
00:26:57booking
00:26:57Celtic change
00:27:00might be imminent
00:27:00Johnny Kenny
00:27:01just getting ready
00:27:02but for now
00:27:03it will be
00:27:06Livingston
00:27:06make a couple
00:27:08of changes
00:27:08for Keeler
00:27:09will go for
00:27:10Teti Yenge
00:27:10and Connor
00:27:12MacLennan
00:27:13comes on as
00:27:15well
00:27:15for Andy
00:27:18Winter
00:27:19so Teti Yenge
00:27:20signed a new deal
00:27:21this week
00:27:22so
00:27:22big presence
00:27:26in that
00:27:26Livingston
00:27:27front line
00:27:28brother is well
00:27:30playing
00:27:30up in Aberdeen
00:27:31flag is up
00:27:37winning those games
00:27:40this afternoon
00:27:41Peter
00:27:41with the result
00:27:44on Wednesday
00:27:44night
00:27:45the travel
00:27:46coming on
00:27:46it's just
00:27:47about winning
00:27:47isn't it
00:27:48it's all about
00:27:48just getting
00:27:49the three points
00:27:50and we move on
00:27:51this club
00:27:52this club's always
00:27:52about winning
00:27:52that never
00:27:53changes
00:27:53it's the
00:27:54performances
00:27:54you have to
00:27:55go with it
00:27:55Brendan's made
00:27:56a lot of
00:27:57changes in the
00:27:57game today
00:27:58it's never easy
00:27:59when you do
00:27:59that no matter
00:27:59the quality
00:28:00it's within the
00:28:01group
00:28:01it's never easy
00:28:02when you make
00:28:02all the changes
00:28:03if you remember
00:28:03back to Falkert
00:28:04last year
00:28:05I think Brendan
00:28:05made about
00:28:06eight or nine
00:28:06changes
00:28:06and said
00:28:07he'd probably
00:28:07never do it
00:28:08again
00:28:08you know
00:28:09because of that
00:28:10and I think
00:28:11I think it's
00:28:11important these
00:28:12boys get games
00:28:12in the league
00:28:13because they're
00:28:13all going to
00:28:14have to pay a
00:28:14big part
00:28:14because of the
00:28:15injuries that
00:28:15we do have
00:28:16and the players
00:28:17that's no longer
00:28:17here
00:28:18a bit of a
00:28:22miscommunication
00:28:22there
00:28:23Negrin for that
00:28:26ball
00:28:27played by
00:28:28Murray
00:28:28Celtic
00:28:31just have a
00:28:32bit of an
00:28:33impetus to go
00:28:34and get a
00:28:34second goal
00:28:34and just make
00:28:35sure of those
00:28:36three points
00:28:37yeah I think
00:28:38that's where
00:28:39he'll be
00:28:39interesting
00:28:40I think it's
00:28:40maybe Yang
00:28:41if you're
00:28:42saying Johnny
00:28:42Kenny will
00:28:43come on
00:28:43because I
00:28:43think the
00:28:43NBA would
00:28:44come left
00:28:44because it
00:28:46allows
00:28:46I think Yang
00:28:47if another
00:28:48wide player
00:28:49gets injured
00:28:49then you
00:28:49have a
00:28:50problem
00:28:50a massive
00:28:51problem
00:28:51absolutely
00:28:52Peter
00:28:52maybe shocked
00:28:55if that wasn't
00:28:55the change
00:28:56Kenny
00:28:57the Irishman
00:28:58is ready
00:29:00and prime
00:29:01to come on
00:29:02so
00:29:03here's Negrin
00:29:06continues his run
00:29:07so well
00:29:08clubs it in
00:29:10looking for
00:29:11Yang
00:29:11his final
00:29:12act
00:29:12maybe
00:29:12comes back
00:29:15to the
00:29:16Korean
00:29:16winger
00:29:17gets the
00:29:17ball in
00:29:18here's
00:29:19Forrest
00:29:19James Forrest
00:29:21it's taken off
00:29:22his toes
00:29:22Engels is there
00:29:23as well with
00:29:24the shot
00:29:24Celtic try and
00:29:29push for a
00:29:29second goal
00:29:30and then Amura
00:29:31pass goes out of
00:29:32play and that
00:29:33will allow for
00:29:34the change and
00:29:35that is as you
00:29:35suspected
00:29:36Peter Yang will
00:29:38make way
00:29:39and he'll be
00:29:40replaced by
00:29:40Johnny Kenny
00:29:41yeah you can see
00:29:42that made
00:29:43he'll come back
00:29:43out to the
00:29:44left hand side
00:29:45now a new
00:29:50contract for
00:29:51him
00:29:52he comes on
00:29:53as well
00:29:55got his first
00:29:56goal at
00:29:57Petaudry
00:29:57towards the end
00:30:00of May
00:30:00last season
00:30:02and
00:30:02of course a few
00:30:03goals in pre-season
00:30:04as well
00:30:05in that game
00:30:06against Newcastle
00:30:07he'll be looking
00:30:08for his first
00:30:09competitive goal
00:30:10of the season
00:30:11well he's a
00:30:18young player
00:30:18and I always
00:30:19say when young
00:30:19players get a
00:30:20chance
00:30:20you have to
00:30:21take it
00:30:21it's not a matter
00:30:22you've got to
00:30:23break yourself in
00:30:24but to do that
00:30:24you've got to
00:30:25create chances
00:30:25for him
00:30:26brilliant
00:30:26brilliant stuff
00:30:27there from
00:30:28Maeda
00:30:28and Amura
00:30:30that's a great
00:30:30ball but it's
00:30:31just picked out
00:30:32by Pryor
00:30:33once again
00:30:34just needed a
00:30:35bit more on it
00:30:36yeah he's a bit
00:30:37unfortunate
00:30:37I think he's
00:30:38caught whether to
00:30:38go for Arnie
00:30:39Engels has
00:30:40made a great
00:30:40run here
00:30:40as well
00:30:41you can see
00:30:41trying to get
00:30:41in the box
00:30:42but he's
00:30:42played it
00:30:42too early
00:30:43I think
00:30:44if he'd have
00:30:45just left it
00:30:45in the area
00:30:45there
00:30:46but yeah
00:30:46again as I
00:30:47say Engels
00:30:47attitude's been
00:30:49excellent
00:30:49maybe his
00:30:50quals he's
00:30:50been down
00:30:50on what he's
00:30:51capable of
00:30:52Yenge
00:30:54fighting away
00:30:55with skills
00:30:56here
00:30:56and Amura
00:30:57has to be
00:30:57strong
00:30:58Stevie May
00:31:01now goes
00:31:02on the outside
00:31:02ball comes
00:31:03into the box
00:31:04and Dane
00:31:04Murray just
00:31:04clears it
00:31:05away
00:31:05for a
00:31:06corner kick
00:31:07and that will
00:31:10add an element
00:31:11of danger
00:31:12for the Celtic
00:31:13defence
00:31:13well this is
00:31:15we say
00:31:15this is
00:31:15they work
00:31:16towards
00:31:16free kicks
00:31:17corners
00:31:17long throws
00:31:18whatever
00:31:18you see they
00:31:20don't mesh
00:31:20when it gets
00:31:20in the wide
00:31:21areas
00:31:21they put it
00:31:21in there
00:31:22give you that
00:31:22problem

00:32:01but what
00:32:02Kenny does
00:32:02really well
00:32:03he's aware
00:32:03of where
00:32:04the defender
00:32:04is here

00:32:05knows if
00:32:05he can
00:32:06take on
00:32:06the run
00:32:06and he
00:32:07does

00:32:33Benjamin
00:32:34Negrin's
00:32:35two to the
00:32:35good
00:32:35and you
00:32:37would hope
00:32:37that would be
00:32:38the three
00:32:38points
00:32:39this afternoon
00:32:4020 minutes
00:32:41to go
00:32:41Celtic two
00:32:42Movingston
00:32:43now
00:32:44it's a fantastic
00:32:45finish yet again
00:32:46the thing he's done
00:32:48for both goals
00:32:49is he's the one
00:32:49who never stands
00:32:50still
00:32:50if you watch him
00:32:51here
00:32:51the ball's moving
00:32:53about the box
00:32:53you can see him
00:32:55getting picked up
00:32:56he never stops
00:32:57he's always
00:32:57looking over his
00:32:59shoulder
00:32:59he finds a little
00:33:00bit of space
00:33:01he's not received
00:33:01the ball
00:33:02now he receives
00:33:03it
00:33:03he's aware
00:33:03he doesn't
00:33:04stand still
00:33:05another midfield
00:33:05player does
00:33:06he doesn't
00:33:07bang
00:33:07he's in the
00:33:08back of the net
00:33:09fantastic finish
00:33:10there is a VAR
00:33:13check
00:33:14might have been
00:33:15on the run
00:33:16of Engels
00:33:17in that moment
00:33:18there
00:33:18we'll get
00:33:20confirmation of
00:33:21that but
00:33:21hopefully this
00:33:23goal will stand
00:33:24it didn't
00:33:25it looks slightly
00:33:26tight
00:33:26Peter but
00:33:27for me he's on
00:33:31check complete
00:33:32goal stands
00:33:32Celtic
00:33:35two and out
00:33:36lead here
00:33:37down to
00:33:39that man there
00:33:40Benjamin
00:33:40Negrin
00:33:41I just think
00:33:45he might be
00:33:45demanding the
00:33:46match this
00:33:46afternoon
00:33:47yeah
00:33:48deservably so
00:33:49so far
00:33:50there's no
00:33:50doubt of that
00:33:51I think he's
00:33:53all round game
00:33:54you know he's
00:33:54endeavoured
00:33:54he's played
00:33:55different position
00:33:56you know he
00:33:57shows you a
00:33:58goal scoring
00:33:59threat
00:33:59he's always on
00:34:00the move as I
00:34:00say within the
00:34:01box that's why
00:34:01you can see when
00:34:02people say he's
00:34:03more than a
00:34:03forward
00:34:03he plays like a
00:34:04forward when
00:34:05he's in that
00:34:05area
00:34:06all defenders
00:34:07simply switch
00:34:07off and he
00:34:08keeps on the
00:34:08move and he's
00:34:09got his joy
00:34:10with two
00:34:11fantastic goals
00:34:11different types
00:34:13interesting the
00:34:14whole move almost
00:34:15came from that
00:34:16instance where
00:34:17Johnny Kenny
00:34:18kept racing it
00:34:20down and he
00:34:21won the corner
00:34:21kick and it all
00:34:22kind of came from
00:34:23that so well done
00:34:25to him and
00:34:25Celtic have a
00:34:27two goal lead
00:34:28after about
00:34:29nearly first half
00:34:30I suppose
00:34:31here's McGregor
00:34:32Wallstein goes
00:34:35down under the
00:34:36injury
00:34:36under the
00:34:37challenge I
00:34:37should say
00:34:38goes out for a
00:34:42throw and that
00:34:43will give a
00:34:43chance for
00:34:44Wallstein to
00:34:46potentially get
00:34:47some treatment
00:34:47if he needs
00:34:48he needs it
00:34:48there's a
00:34:55late challenge
00:34:56there
00:34:56again he's a
00:34:58tough boy
00:34:58take a lot
00:35:00more than that
00:35:01to keep him
00:35:02down
00:35:02and here's
00:35:07where it all
00:35:08came from
00:35:08Peter this
00:35:09superb distribution
00:35:11in Johnny
00:35:12Kenny
00:35:12great distribution
00:35:13but it's then
00:35:13this endeavour
00:35:14not just to turn a
00:35:15defender but to
00:35:16go and be positive
00:35:17try and get in
00:35:17the box
00:35:17you tell your
00:35:18striker get in
00:35:19there make them
00:35:19free give you a
00:35:20free kick or
00:35:20whatever he gets
00:35:21a corner from
00:35:22and from the
00:35:24corner that's
00:35:24where the lead up
00:35:25to the goal
00:35:25comes so great
00:35:26credit to the
00:35:26young man but
00:35:27also Kasper
00:35:27Schmeichel for
00:35:28the quick throw
00:35:29well Lewis
00:35:30Smith has come
00:35:31on to replace
00:35:32McAuley Tate
00:35:33it's not a
00:35:34fantastic goal
00:35:35against Falkirk
00:35:36in the last
00:35:37league outing
00:35:38here is Lewis
00:35:48Smith and it's
00:35:49just a late
00:35:50challenge on
00:35:51Arna Engels
00:35:52flag does go
00:35:53up for a
00:35:55foul
00:35:55Stevie May
00:35:56looks like he's
00:35:57the culprit
00:35:57and Arna Engels
00:36:00is through the
00:36:01walls once
00:36:02again
00:36:02nasty one
00:36:08there
00:36:08I think it's
00:36:13quite a difficult
00:36:13one and I'm
00:36:14not because he's
00:36:15actually hooked the
00:36:16ball away
00:36:16Stevie May and I
00:36:18don't know what you're
00:36:19supposed to do as a
00:36:20player you know you
00:36:20can't really get out
00:36:21the road after that
00:36:22you've hooked it
00:36:22away Arna's went to
00:36:23get there May's got
00:36:25there first
00:36:25listen if it was
00:36:28one of your players
00:36:28I'd be disappointed
00:36:29of course you would
00:36:30be
00:36:30I'd be disappointed
00:36:31screaming for a
00:36:31yellow card
00:36:32the game continues
00:36:40anyway
00:36:41Murray
00:36:45nice play
00:36:56Amura
00:36:58finds Maeda
00:36:59that's good
00:37:0928
00:37:09here's Forrest

00:37:12here's Negrin
00:37:14can he get his
00:37:14hat-trick
00:37:15looks for Kenny
00:37:16Maeda
00:37:21good ball
00:37:23into the box
00:37:24and he gets his
00:37:27first of the season
00:37:28Johnny Kenny
00:37:29new deal
00:37:31gets his goal
00:37:32and a great couple
00:37:34of weeks for him
00:37:35and it's 3-0
00:37:36to the champions
00:37:37Johnny Kenny
00:37:38with the goal
00:37:39all good strikers
00:37:40do
00:37:40get the tweet
00:37:41the sticks
00:37:42and to be fair
00:37:43once he lines
00:37:45the defender up
00:37:45you think
00:37:46I'm getting in there
00:37:46because he's going
00:37:47to take him on
00:37:47for pace for sure
00:37:48and yet again
00:37:50the thing we speak
00:37:50about putting the
00:37:51ball in earlier
00:37:52when Johnny Kenny
00:37:53makes a run
00:37:54he knows
00:37:55he's busting the gut
00:37:56across to get across
00:37:56to the defender
00:37:57but it's not an easy
00:37:58finish
00:37:58it's a very good
00:37:59finish
00:38:00another one
00:38:04who cut off the mark
00:38:06towards the end
00:38:07of last season
00:38:08and he's off the mark
00:38:09for this season
00:38:10Johnny Kenny
00:38:11makes it 3
00:38:12and it will be 3 points
00:38:14to the champions
00:38:15I'd like to
00:38:17for the young man
00:38:17it's always important
00:38:19you get your goals
00:38:19at Celtic Park
00:38:20as a striker
00:38:21that's what you're judged on
00:38:22but I always think
00:38:24you can only judge them
00:38:24if the balls are coming
00:38:25in the box
00:38:26and if the balls
00:38:26are coming in the box
00:38:27you're creating chances
00:38:28but the thing about
00:38:29Kenny there was
00:38:29he was on the move
00:38:30he knew when Dyson made
00:38:32a 1v1 situation
00:38:33I'm desperate to get there
00:38:35another change
00:38:39will be on the way
00:38:40looks like Anthony Ralston
00:38:41is going to make way
00:38:42and it will be
00:38:43a competitive debut
00:38:45for Colby Donovan
00:38:47at right back
00:38:48might have looked like
00:38:50he could have been
00:38:51possibly out on loan
00:38:53but he's now going to
00:38:53get his Celtic chance
00:38:54another academy product
00:38:56a good moment
00:38:58incoming for him
00:38:59but in the meantime
00:39:01here's Negrin
00:39:01looking for Maeda
00:39:03and he puts the pressure
00:39:05on here's Kenny
00:39:05and now
00:39:08three kicks given
00:39:09he's got a late challenge
00:39:11from Johnny Kenny
00:39:12and the fourth goal
00:39:15is not to be
00:39:16in that moment
00:39:17I think he was offside
00:39:20in the first place
00:39:20he called it back
00:39:21for offside
00:39:22I don't think
00:39:22Johnny Kenny
00:39:23should attain it
00:39:24the first time
00:39:24because that Negrin
00:39:25was getting through
00:39:26on it
00:39:26and I think
00:39:28he's seen it there
00:39:29when they played on
00:39:30the linesman
00:39:30he put his flag up
00:39:31for offside also
00:39:32so I think that's why
00:39:33Kenny should have just
00:39:34left it
00:39:34no-spotted Peter
00:39:36Ryan McGowan
00:39:38feeling the effects
00:39:4036 years of age now
00:39:41experienced campaigner
00:39:42and it will be
00:39:44a debut
00:39:45for Colby Donovan
00:39:46he's impressed
00:39:47in pre-season
00:39:48and he's going to get
00:39:49a chance
00:39:49right back now
00:39:51as Anthony Ralston
00:39:53makes way
00:39:54a fantastic moment
00:39:58for him
00:39:58and his family
00:39:59Colby Donovan
00:40:00if he gets a chance
00:40:01to show the Celtic fans
00:40:03what he's got
00:40:04he's done well
00:40:06some of the pre-season
00:40:07games
00:40:07they played
00:40:08different positions
00:40:09I'm sure I've seen him
00:40:11playing it right back
00:40:12and centre back
00:40:12so it shows a wee bit
00:40:14of versatility
00:40:15there was a moment in the
00:40:17court city game
00:40:18where he had to come
00:40:19back on
00:40:20after being substituted
00:40:21then he got the winner
00:40:22and it was a very good goal
00:40:24actually
00:40:24yep
00:40:25he got the winner
00:40:26at the end
00:40:27the header
00:40:27Celtic took the
00:40:29Super Cup home
00:40:31now on the ball
00:40:39for a throw in
00:40:40there's Kenny
00:40:41Silla
00:40:44finds it all out
00:40:46McLennan
00:40:48wanting to see
00:40:50a bit of all
00:40:51he's like a live wire
00:40:52you have to be so careful
00:40:54Smith now
00:40:57Finlayson
00:41:01and here is Maeda
00:41:03does well
00:41:07just calms it down
00:41:08Murray
00:41:17oh and there's a chance
00:41:20now here's Silla
00:41:21it's going to be
00:41:22one on one here
00:41:23Cam Livingstone
00:41:24get a goal back
00:41:24it's great defending
00:41:25from Dane Murray
00:41:27Silla
00:41:28does go down
00:41:30under the challenge
00:41:31it looked like it was
00:41:32a fair challenge
00:41:33Livingstone
00:41:36pass up the chance
00:41:37that was a brilliant
00:41:38reaction
00:41:39because he's given
00:41:40the ball away
00:41:40and there is
00:41:42absolute doubt
00:41:42it's a fantastic tackle
00:41:44we can see it very well
00:41:45from up here
00:41:45here's Engels
00:41:46looking for Kenny
00:41:48in the middle
00:41:48chase it down
00:41:50Arna Engels
00:41:51puts the tackle in
00:41:52and that will be
00:41:54a free kick
00:41:54Silla is back
00:41:55on his feet
00:41:56at the other side
00:41:56and he had
00:41:59the opportunity there
00:42:00yeah but it's the reaction
00:42:03here for Dane Murray
00:42:04look he's giving it away
00:42:05he doesn't stop
00:42:05he gets across
00:42:06Liam Sills does well
00:42:07to hold him up
00:42:08but it's a fantastic tackle
00:42:10brilliant
00:42:13defending
00:42:14recovers well
00:42:14from his initial mistake
00:42:16Dane Murray
00:42:16that's what you've got to do
00:42:18that's what you've got to do
00:42:18you can't just give up
00:42:19put your hands in the air
00:42:19and hold your head
00:42:20everybody's going to make
00:42:22a mistake
00:42:22you've just got to react
00:42:23that's exactly what you did
00:42:24well took again
00:42:30from the swede
00:42:31Kenny
00:42:33he's looking for
00:42:33Annamura
00:42:34good
00:42:37tracking back from Maeda
00:42:38but the referee
00:42:40disagrees
00:42:41and there's been a foul
00:42:42in the boulder
00:42:44yeah he's giving it
00:42:46against Annamura
00:42:47definitely not against Maeda
00:42:48who showed
00:42:49fantastic tenacity
00:42:51again
00:42:51headed away
00:42:55by Donovan
00:42:56the manager spoke
00:43:03really highly of him
00:43:04he's been
00:43:06impressed
00:43:07he's shown
00:43:09great strides
00:43:10in his development
00:43:11as we keep saying
00:43:16about young men
00:43:17when they get an opportunity
00:43:18to be in front of the manager
00:43:19whether it's training
00:43:20or playing
00:43:20all you can do
00:43:22is perform
00:43:22then you hope
00:43:24you get that opportunity
00:43:25to start a game
00:43:26or play a game
00:43:27and then continue
00:43:28in the team
00:43:28and that's what you want to do
00:43:29that's throughout history
00:43:31as being a football player
00:43:32you get your knocks
00:43:34scales
00:43:41started the day
00:43:43he's the captain
00:43:44fine performance
00:43:49yeah he can be very proud
00:43:51of his performance
00:43:52being the captain
00:43:53is an unbelievable honour
00:43:54at this football club
00:43:55the way he's played
00:43:57as well he's handled it
00:43:58I suppose that would have
00:43:59just added a bit more
00:44:00to his usual preparation
00:44:02Peter being the captain
00:44:04of the day
00:44:05obviously having to take
00:44:06that team talk
00:44:06it's a bit more of a
00:44:08mental shift
00:44:09that he probably
00:44:10doesn't prepare for
00:44:11usually
00:44:11yeah you've got to make sure
00:44:13it doesn't change
00:44:13what you
00:44:14your game
00:44:15that's important
00:44:16wrong ball
00:44:19can Kenny keep this one alive
00:44:20it's a great touch
00:44:21from Kenny
00:44:22he's going to take it past
00:44:23prior
00:44:24flag stayed down
00:44:26from the far side
00:44:27it's a fantastic
00:44:31ball from that man
00:44:32skills we're talking about
00:44:33Johnny Kenny does
00:44:33brilliant
00:44:34he's well on
00:44:34I think once he gets
00:44:36and has this fantastic touch
00:44:38maybe gets away from him
00:44:40half a yard
00:44:41it's a great run
00:44:43and a great pass
00:44:45Celtic pick up the ball
00:44:46there's Kenny
00:44:48they find Donovan
00:44:49good ball into the danger area
00:44:51from Colby Donovan
00:44:53but nobody gambling
00:44:54in the middle
00:44:55there's everything right
00:44:56we've talked about it
00:44:57put the ball in the box
00:44:58you can't do any more
00:44:59than that
00:45:00but believe it or not
00:45:01that goes down
00:45:02as an incomplete pass
00:45:03would you believe it
00:45:04you love your stats
00:45:06Peter
00:45:07oh it drives me nuts
00:45:08that's where strikers
00:45:13and midfielders
00:45:13have got to be
00:45:15scales now
00:45:20seven or so minutes left
00:45:23McGregor
00:45:25just clean this one up
00:45:26goes back to the goalkeeper
00:45:27I think
00:45:30coming into the game
00:45:31they took a 3-0
00:45:33they bit your hand off for it
00:45:353-0
00:45:36three points
00:45:37and get on the plane
00:45:38to Kazakhstan
00:45:39absolutely
00:45:40listen
00:45:41they've done terrific
00:45:42with the changes
00:45:43that teams had
00:45:43as I said earlier
00:45:44it's never easy
00:45:45no matter who they are
00:45:48and I know they're all
00:45:48first team players
00:45:49and their respect to that
00:45:50Negrin looking for Maeda
00:45:52good punch away from Pryor
00:45:54but Celtic will keep this one
00:45:56alive
00:45:57here's Anamura
00:45:57Forrest
00:46:00and the shot is saved
00:46:02of course had that
00:46:03fantastic moment
00:46:04at the end of last season
00:46:05to score for the
00:46:0716th consecutive season
00:46:09he'll be looking for
00:46:10a 17th consecutive season
00:46:12now let's hope he does it
00:46:14in sooner time
00:46:16than he did last season
00:46:17Wilson just clears the ball
00:46:24up the pitch
00:46:25it's been
00:46:27very little
00:46:28of an attacking threat
00:46:30from Livingston
00:46:30can't really remember
00:46:31Schmeichel
00:46:32to have
00:46:33much of a save
00:46:34other than that
00:46:35that punch out
00:46:36he had to do
00:46:37you'll sell it
00:46:39you can tell the way
00:46:42they were lined up
00:46:42they were happy
00:46:43for going to have
00:46:44a couple of efforts
00:46:44on goal
00:46:45and then hope
00:46:46they were going to
00:46:46maybe as I say
00:46:47wait for set plays
00:46:48or a mistake
00:46:49and exactly what
00:46:49happened with Siller
00:46:50you know
00:46:51one mistake
00:46:52if that happens
00:46:52at 0-0 or 1-0
00:46:54and they score from it
00:46:55then it's a completely
00:46:55different game
00:46:56and that's why
00:46:56the concentration levels
00:46:58in the backline
00:46:58centre-backs playing
00:47:00together really
00:47:01in a first team game
00:47:02I would say
00:47:02if I'm not 100% sure
00:47:04but they've done
00:47:07remarkably well
00:47:08but yet again
00:47:09it tells you
00:47:10at this level
00:47:10Young Murray will have
00:47:11learnt from the fact
00:47:12if you switch off
00:47:13and give the ball away
00:47:13it's an opportunity
00:47:14for the opposition
00:47:15here he is
00:47:16comes the ball
00:47:17up the pitch
00:47:17looks like Johnny Kenny
00:47:19but he's picked up
00:47:21here's Lewis Smith
00:47:22it's a shot
00:47:23it's blocked
00:47:25Pittman
00:47:28for an effort
00:47:29that's probably all
00:47:32you can say it is
00:47:33just an effort
00:47:34yeah but
00:47:36Kasper Schmeichel
00:47:37two centre-backs
00:47:38two full-backs
00:47:39will be desperate
00:47:40for a clean sheet
00:47:41so
00:47:41that's a chance now
00:47:44what you've got to do
00:47:45as defenders
00:47:46don't want to give
00:47:46a goal away
00:47:47you want to keep
00:47:48that concentration
00:47:49level right to
00:47:50the final whistle
00:47:51I haven't mentioned
00:47:52it up until
00:47:53this point
00:47:54but Celtic do
00:47:54keep a clean sheet
00:47:55it will only be
00:47:56the 7th time
00:47:56in their history
00:47:57that they've done it
00:47:58in the first 3 games
00:47:59of the season
00:47:59as Lewis Smith
00:48:00comes into the box
00:48:00he'll tip me
00:48:02Smith
00:48:05goes across
00:48:07still
00:48:08live here
00:48:09and it's clipped
00:48:10towards the back post
00:48:11and that'll just go wide
00:48:13for another goal kick
00:48:14from Stevie May
00:48:15yeah you can see what he's
00:48:17trying to do
00:48:17he's trying to lift it
00:48:17into that top corner
00:48:18far top corner
00:48:19as I say
00:48:22that's the challenge
00:48:23now
00:48:23don't give the ball
00:48:24away in bad areas
00:48:26make sure
00:48:27we don't give a goal away
00:48:28of course Celtic kept
00:48:32a clean sheet
00:48:32in the first 3 games
00:48:33of last season
00:48:34didn't concede
00:48:35until the 6th of October
00:48:36in the league
00:48:36here's Forrest
00:48:39ball comes into
00:48:42the box again
00:48:43but it's quite easy
00:48:44for Pryor
00:48:45to collect
00:48:46the build up play
00:48:48was excellent
00:48:49simple but effective
00:48:51but just cut them
00:48:51wide open
00:48:52it's when it goes
00:48:57bends in towards the goalkeeper
00:48:59instead of James Rappen
00:49:00makes foot round it
00:49:01they'll be disappointed
00:49:02at that
00:49:02because he put some
00:49:04fantastic balls in
00:49:05against Falkert
00:49:06last week
00:49:06just getting word
00:49:09there'll be
00:49:103 additional minutes
00:49:11as it stands
00:49:12so
00:49:13Celtic 3 to the good
00:49:16hopefully getting
00:49:173 points
00:49:18and 3 extra minutes
00:49:19to play
00:49:19towards the end
00:49:20before the focus
00:49:23will switch to
00:49:24Almaty
00:49:26and the journey
00:49:27we'll discuss that
00:49:30at full time
00:49:31Peter
00:49:31as you will
00:49:32finally relent
00:49:33we can look
00:49:33towards Tuesday
00:49:34yep
00:49:35it's all about
00:49:36today
00:49:37first
00:49:37Smith tries to keep
00:49:46it going
00:49:46and Amura
00:49:47quite tenacious
00:49:49and he's defending
00:49:50Celtic
00:49:52can have the
00:49:53throw in
00:49:54Kenny

00:51:42if we now
00:51:43enter additional

00:55:23man of the
00:55:24match
00:55:24award with
00:55:26his two goals
00:55:26Johnny Kenny
00:55:28finished it all
00:55:29off this afternoon
00:55:30to make it
00:55:313 Celtic keep
00:55:32for only the
00:55:337th time in their
00:55:34history through the
00:55:35first three games
00:55:36of the season
00:55:37a fine performance
00:55:39by a much
00:55:40changed Celtic
00:55:41side as Brendan
00:55:42Rodgers looked to
00:55:43get that balance
00:55:44before the trip
00:55:45to Almaty
00:55:46for the crunch
00:55:48second leg
00:55:49of the playoff
00:55:50that will determine
00:55:51if Celtic are in the
00:55:52league phase of the
00:55:53Champions League
00:55:54or not
00:55:54Peter your thoughts
00:55:56on the game
00:55:56a fine performance
00:55:58yeah I was
00:55:58I thought the second
00:56:00half was much
00:56:00more like it
00:56:01the fact that
00:56:02we stretched them
00:56:03it allowed spaces
00:56:03for midfielders to run
00:56:05and you see that
00:56:06when you keep
00:56:06playing against
00:56:07that sort of system
00:56:08that's what you have
00:56:09to do
00:56:09I felt in the first
00:56:10half
00:56:10we were trying to
00:56:11score the perfect
00:56:12goal
00:56:12the more times
00:56:13the ball comes
00:56:13in the box
00:56:14and I don't mean
00:56:15just putting it in
00:56:16here aimlessly
00:56:16the more chances
00:56:17you've got to
00:56:18create chances
00:56:19and that's exactly
00:56:19what happened
00:56:20and you've got to
00:56:21give great credit
00:56:22to players
00:56:22because I thought
00:56:23they stepped up
00:56:23a little bit
00:56:24interesting
00:56:26chat there
00:56:27from the manager
00:56:27to Dane Murray
00:56:28just making sure
00:56:29he's not letting
00:56:31his head drop
00:56:31because it was
00:56:32a very good
00:56:32performance
00:56:33just as it
00:56:33just tailed away
00:56:35at the end
00:56:35maybe due to fitness
00:56:36but a word for
00:56:38Hayato and Amura
00:56:38I know you say
00:56:39they can be very
00:56:40pleased with his
00:56:40performance
00:56:41he played the
00:56:4290 minutes as well
00:56:43so Kieran Tierney
00:56:44should be fresh
00:56:46for Tuesday night
00:56:47Peter
00:56:47but a fantastic
00:56:49outing for him
00:56:50as well
00:56:51he really
00:56:51didn't let himself
00:56:52down
00:56:53listen
00:56:53we can see
00:56:54in pre-season
00:56:54I know Brendan
00:56:55touched on the fact
00:56:56it was Queen's part
00:56:56whatever
00:56:57I think
00:56:58at the end of the day
00:56:58he's got quality
00:56:59on the ball
00:56:59it looks more like
00:57:00a left back
00:57:01in the centre half
00:57:01to me
00:57:02to be perfectly honest
00:57:02with you
00:57:03but when he done
00:57:04that today
00:57:04and he come in
00:57:05and he wasn't
00:57:06a weak link
00:57:07it's interesting
00:57:07obviously
00:57:08he never had a lot
00:57:08to do defensively
00:57:09but going forward
00:57:10he was always
00:57:11in the right positions
00:57:12a couple of crosses
00:57:12come in
00:57:13from the opposite side
00:57:14his full back
00:57:14position was good
00:57:15so all the things
00:57:17he can be very pleased
00:57:18with his 90 odd
00:57:19minutes today
00:57:19so
00:57:20give credit to the team
00:57:21because it wasn't
00:57:22an easy game today
00:57:23in the respect
00:57:23I've talked on before
00:57:25that so many changes
00:57:27playing together
00:57:28for the first time
00:57:28that team will have
00:57:29never played together
00:57:30I'm sure
00:57:30ever together
00:57:31so
00:57:32to try and build
00:57:33the sort of patterns
00:57:35you're going to make
00:57:36mistakes
00:57:36and you can see that
00:57:37in the first half
00:57:38getting each other's road
00:57:39they're two and arrow
00:57:39second half
00:57:40I thought that was much better
00:57:41great credit to them
00:57:42just before we go back
00:57:43to the studio
00:57:44just your quick thoughts
00:57:45ahead of Tuesday night
00:57:46Peter
00:57:46very tough game
00:57:47I've been in Kazakhstan
00:57:48people don't realise
00:57:50what the travel is like
00:57:51it is really horrendous
00:57:53but also the fact
00:57:54it's causing the time
00:57:55difference once you get
00:57:56there as well
00:57:56it always makes it difficult
00:57:57but players know
00:57:59they've got to perform
00:58:00these players
00:58:01if you're talking
00:58:01about performances
00:58:02they're more than capable
00:58:03of it
00:58:04to get out there
00:58:04winning games
00:58:05they've won bigger games
00:58:06but pressure comes
00:58:07with this one
00:58:08you're hoping you go
00:58:09there on a performance
00:58:10and I'm sure
00:58:11we'll come back

00:58:40winning them all
00:58:41a draw in Europe
00:58:43can get everyone down
00:58:44but that was a huge result
00:58:45for Celtic
00:58:46this afternoon
00:58:47not just because
00:58:48it's a league game
00:58:49and you want to win
00:58:49all your league games
00:58:50particularly the ones at home
00:58:51but in the current climate
00:58:53ahead of a huge game
00:58:54on Tuesday
00:58:54you can see what that's done
00:58:56to lift the spirits
00:58:56definitely
00:58:57definitely
00:58:57definitely
00:58:58I mean today was just
00:58:59win at all costs
00:59:00you know
00:59:01eight or nine changes there
00:59:03I think eight changes
00:59:04eight changes
00:59:04yeah at the start
00:59:05so an unusual
00:59:06starting line-up
00:59:07but
00:59:08once they got going
00:59:10towards half-time
00:59:11they certainly started
00:59:12that second half
00:59:13very well with the goal
00:59:13you know
00:59:14it was a comfortable win
00:59:16in the end
00:59:16three nice
00:59:17worked goals
00:59:18a lot of good performances
00:59:19there
00:59:20Negri I think
00:59:21catches the eye
00:59:22with the two goals
00:59:22but yeah
00:59:23you just
00:59:23the manager would just
00:59:25want to win that game
00:59:26but I think there was
00:59:27a wee bit of performance
00:59:28in it
00:59:28going into that second half
00:59:29as well
00:59:29with the well-worked goals
00:59:31I think the manager
00:59:31will be very satisfied
00:59:33two goals from
00:59:33Benjamin Negri
00:59:34and the man of the match
00:59:35Johnny Kenny
00:59:35got a goal as well
00:59:37another clean sheet
00:59:38incredible
00:59:39with Daylon Stark
00:59:40there
00:59:40only the seventh time
00:59:41in our history
00:59:42that Celtic covered
00:59:43the first three league games
00:59:44with clean sheets
00:59:45that's the stats
00:59:45for the game
00:59:46you would expect Celtic
00:59:47to have the vast majority
00:59:48of possession
00:59:50which they did
00:59:5119 shots
00:59:52on goal
00:59:539 on target
00:59:54but it's all
00:59:55we always say
00:59:55it's all about that
00:59:56start at the top
00:59:57Celtic 3
00:59:57Livingston 0
00:59:59last I heard
01:00:00it was 3 all
01:00:01at Tyne Castle
01:00:02between Hearts
01:00:03and Motherwell
01:00:03so as far as I
01:00:04can see Celtic
01:00:06have extended the lead
01:00:07at the top
01:00:08of the table
01:00:09it's not really
01:00:10about that though
01:00:10at this time
01:00:11of the year
01:00:12it's just about
01:00:14getting the points
01:00:14and all the rest of it
01:00:16Liam Scales
01:00:17and Benjamin Negri
01:00:18Liam Scales
01:00:19of course Celtic
01:00:19captain today
01:00:20he was another
01:00:21top performer
01:00:22he is down there
01:00:23with Celtic's
01:00:24man of the match
01:00:25Benjamin Negri
01:00:26ready to speak

01:00:33victory
01:00:34yeah you know
01:00:35they set up
01:00:36well and they
01:00:38made it hard for us
01:00:38in the first half
01:00:39but I think
01:00:39we knew that
01:00:40if we kept playing
01:00:41our game
01:00:41and doing anything
01:00:42we'd break them down
01:00:43and that's what we did
01:00:44in the second half
01:00:44it was a really
01:00:45good win
01:00:46how important
01:00:47was it to
01:00:47respond to
01:00:49I know the
01:00:49disappointment
01:00:50of a goal
01:00:50that's drawn
01:00:50midweek
01:00:51with a display
01:00:52like that
01:00:52today
01:00:53yeah no it was
01:00:53massive

01:01:09when you have the ball
01:01:10a lot
01:01:11it's always
01:01:11very important
01:01:12to get the first goal
01:01:14you see what happens
01:01:16then it's a totally
01:01:17different game
01:01:18the game opens up
01:01:20a bit more
01:01:20so very important
01:01:22and how much credit
01:01:23do we give the squad

01:02:05to Benjamin Negan
01:02:05there I'm pretty sure
01:02:07I'm confident
01:02:07saying that might not
01:02:08be the last man
01:02:09of the match
01:02:09award for
01:02:11Benjamin Negan
01:02:12he was good
01:02:13we spoke about
01:02:14the game on
01:02:15Wednesday
01:02:16and about how Celtic
01:02:17came back out
01:02:18firing in that second half
01:02:19but didn't get the goal
01:02:20and then it went flat again
01:02:21the difference this afternoon
01:02:23as Benji mentions
01:02:24they come out
01:02:24firing
01:02:25and they do get the goal
01:02:26yeah that's exactly
01:02:27a really good response
01:02:29at the start of the second half
01:02:30he carries the ball
01:02:31the length of the pitch
01:02:31a pass out to
01:02:33to Yang who
01:02:34we're talking about
01:02:34half time
01:02:35about lack of shots
01:02:36he just shifts
01:02:37and creates a yard
01:02:38for himself
01:02:38but great bit of play here
01:02:40carrying the ball
01:02:40gets his head up
01:02:42skips by a couple
01:02:43of challenges here
01:02:44and pops out
01:02:45but just keeps moving
01:02:46keeps moving forward
01:02:47Yang
01:02:49this is what we're looking for
01:02:50just create a yard
01:02:51for yourself
01:02:51and sometimes that happens
01:02:52a shot
01:02:53skidding on the surface
01:02:54the keeper can't deal with it
01:02:56initially
01:02:57and it comes out
01:02:58to Negan
01:02:59who started the move
01:03:00thank you very much
01:03:01nice little tap in
01:03:02do you think that
01:03:03had been a message
01:03:03to Yang
01:03:04I saw the manager
01:03:06go and have a word
01:03:07with John Kennedy
01:03:08and it was almost
01:03:09like a well done
01:03:10like maybe John
01:03:11had a word with
01:03:12with Yang
01:03:12or had something
01:03:13to do with that move
01:03:14but it seemed
01:03:15a different approach
01:03:16from Yang
01:03:16to just cut inside
01:03:17and shoot
01:03:17it might have been
01:03:18we addressed it
01:03:19at half time
01:03:20I think Grant
01:03:20he said it as well
01:03:21in the co-coms
01:03:21sometimes just
01:03:23create a little half yard
01:03:24for yourself
01:03:24and take a shot
01:03:25it can take a deflection
01:03:26I think Shin
01:03:27runs across the face
01:03:28of the keeper there
01:03:29he parries it out
01:03:30and it's 1-0
01:03:31it's an example
01:03:32of what we were
01:03:32talking about
01:03:33in the first half
01:03:34where it looked like
01:03:34they were trying
01:03:35to score the perfect goal
01:03:37sometimes if you have
01:03:38a shot
01:03:38you can get a ricochet
01:03:39and the chance falls
01:03:40yeah you just take
01:03:41that little bit of risk
01:03:42and I don't think
01:03:42the manager
01:03:43will criticise your fans
01:03:44will criticise
01:03:45taking that little bit
01:03:46of risk round about
01:03:46the box
01:03:47to try and make
01:03:47something happen
01:03:48credit to Yang
01:03:49takes the shot
01:03:50it's a simple tap in
01:03:51for Negrin
01:03:52yeah Negrin got a
01:03:53second goal
01:03:53for a left footed player
01:03:54he got two goals
01:03:55with his right foot
01:03:55this one is
01:03:56this is as top bins
01:03:58as you could possibly get
01:03:59yeah it's another
01:04:00nice finish
01:04:00some good play
01:04:03as well
01:04:03with Johnny Kenny
01:04:04in the build up
01:04:05and this just
01:04:06again just put it
01:04:07into an area
01:04:07and it comes back out
01:04:09and again
01:04:10he's lurking in the right area
01:04:11it's very similar
01:04:12to the first goal
01:04:12this one's down the side
01:04:14for Engels
01:04:14just put it in there
01:04:15it causes chaos
01:04:16the keeper gets a touch
01:04:17on it again
01:04:18and he rockets that one
01:04:20I don't know if he's meant
01:04:21to get it as close
01:04:22to the post
01:04:22as he did there
01:04:23but it's a fantastic finish
01:04:25just lurking in the right area
01:04:29with the pass to Engels
01:04:30yeah he just senses
01:04:31where the ball's going to come
01:04:32and he gets his second
01:04:33of the afternoon
01:04:34sealed with a kiss
01:04:35from Benjamin Negrin
01:04:37two goals for him
01:04:38he made a chance
01:04:38to get his hat trick
01:04:39but when the third goal
01:04:40did come
01:04:41it came from Johnny Kenny
01:04:42at this point
01:04:43Dyson Maeda was on
01:04:44and we all know
01:04:45what he can do
01:04:45on that left side
01:04:46yeah and we spoke
01:04:47about Shin when he was on
01:04:48but I thought
01:04:49Johnny Kenny's movement
01:04:50when he came on
01:04:50was really good as well
01:04:51he was involved
01:04:52in winning the corner
01:04:53for that second goal
01:04:55rather
01:04:55again no nonsense
01:04:57Maeda just creates
01:04:59a half yard for himself
01:05:00we're saying this
01:05:00at half time
01:05:01get the balls
01:05:01into the box
01:05:02then it's the job
01:05:03of the striker
01:05:04he does well
01:05:04to get across his man here
01:05:05that's not an easy finish either
01:05:07it's a really good finish
01:05:08has to get his foot up high
01:05:10and guide it towards goal
01:05:11Shin had something similar
01:05:13just at the start
01:05:13of the second half
01:05:14and it unfortunately
01:05:15went to the other side
01:05:16of the post
01:05:16but that's quite simple football
01:05:18just getting it wide
01:05:19getting it in there
01:05:20and a really good finish
01:05:21yeah and I suppose
01:05:22ahead of the game
01:05:23on Tuesday as well
01:05:24when the proof's in the pudding
01:05:25and it absolutely is there
01:05:27the different approach
01:05:27just put the ball
01:05:28into a dangerous area
01:05:29you never know
01:05:30what can happen
01:05:30that might come into play
01:05:31on Tuesday
01:05:32yeah but again
01:05:33I think Kyrat
01:05:34will maybe approach
01:05:35the game a wee bit differently
01:05:36on Tuesday as well
01:05:37so it might be
01:05:38catching them on the break
01:05:39at different times
01:05:40when Maeda's pace
01:05:40but yeah that sort of stuff there
01:05:42I sometimes think
01:05:43when it's too deliberate
01:05:44like that first half
01:05:45it kind of suits
01:05:46the team defending
01:05:47they can just keep their shape
01:05:48and keep shuffling about
01:05:50but they caused a little bit
01:05:51of problems in that second half
01:05:52with taking a wee bit more risk
01:05:54yeah absolutely
01:05:54let's have a look
01:05:55at the league table
01:05:56the league table shows
01:05:58that Celtic are top
01:05:59the only side with
01:06:00zero
01:06:03lossy
01:06:06sorry
