Celtic have taken the lead against Ross County just under 10 minutes into the game, making a perfect start at Celtic Park.

The Hoops are in control early, with their attacking play putting constant pressure on Don Cowie’s side.

the goal came from Liam Scales, who put the Hoops 1-0 up with a header at the near post from a corner delivered by Luke McCowan from the right side of the six-yard box.

McCowan’s delivery was spot on, with the two Bhoys returning to the starting 11, they have made an immediate impact with the goal.

With each player putting in some great performances this season, they are both on the verge of breaking into the team week in and week out, with a goal for Scales and an assist for McCowan strengthening their chances of starting.

It will certainly be great for Brendan Rodgers to see that two players who have spent time on the bench in recent weeks are so motivated to start, with Celtic being such a big part of each player’s life.

The passion they have for the Hoops is always clear to see.
