Celtic fans react on Twitter to Anthony Ralston display

Celtic looked to be cruising to the points as they went 2-0 up inside the first 20 minutes. Jota broke the deadlock after Ralston’s deflected effort from distance came back off the post.

The same two goalscorers ensured that Celtic were 4-1 up after 50 minutes. This time, Ralston was able to set up Jota, with the full-back producing an absolutely delicious cross for the winger.
