Celtic ran out 3-1 winners in Perth on Sunday afternoon thanks to goals from Callum McGregor, Matt O’Riley, and James Forrest. All strikes from the champions were equally as important, although Joe Hart’s late save was match-winning.

Late on, the hosts were pushing for a leveller. A cross-ball came into the box and Jay Turner-Cooke got his head on it. The ball seemed bound for the back of the net although Joe Hart made an utterly crucial save that ensured the Bhoys went home with three points.

As much as Hart receives vast criticism, he came up trumps late on to make sure the Hoops were not left disappointed at full-time. It was a crucial action from the 36-year-old who showed that he still has it.

The goal the champions conceded was partly his fault, but he made up for such an error in the dying embers.
