Four Findings: Celtic 3-0 Motherwell

Celtic returned to domestic action in the SPFL and took all three points against Motherwell with a 3-0 win at Celtic Park.

Despite the midweek disaster, manager Neil Lennon sent out the same starting XI which included no natural striker.

The Hoops grabbed the lead towards the end of the first half after James Forrest blasted it past the keeper in the 40th minute.

Substitute Albian Ajeti made it 2-0 with a ruthless finish after Kristofer Ajer picked out the Swiss international. Christopher Julien added Celtic’s third with a terrific finish in stoppage time.

With four matches played in the SPFL, Celtic sit third in the table on 10 points and six points behind Rangers, but Celtic do still have two games in hand. The Hoops will return to action following the upcoming international break when they’ll travel to Ross County.
