Chris Sutton takes cheeky dig at Kris Boyd after late Celtic win
Celtic left it late against Ross County away in Dingwall. Perhaps it was the result in midweek, but Brendan Rodgers' side did not look their usual selves while the home team took the lead from the penalty spot. But the Hoops would mount a comeback, as champion tams do. Alistair Johnston, whose fitness was in question before the game, scored the equaliser. Then Nicolas Kuhn found the winner just before the end of the match.
Overall, the performance required a lot of improvement. But Celtic will be happy to get the win and the three points right before the international break.
It allows the players to go into the break on a positive note. Hopefully, the Borussia Dortmund result will be out of their minds in a few weeks and the bounce in their steps will be back once again.
Chris Sutton shared his thoughts on the game afterwards. And he even took the opportunity to take a cheeky dig at Kris Boyd, who did not seem happy with Kuhn's celebrations after scoring the winner.
Celtic huffed and puffed and finally got there. The subs changed the game. McCowan excellent, Kyogo’s movement fantastic, Forrest the old stager looked sharp. Kuhn wonderful finish. Kris Boyd didn’t like him celebrating the winner… dear me

Chris Sutton takes cheeky dig at Kris Boyd after late Celtic win
Usually, Celtic fans would not be happy with an international break. But this one feels like it has come at the right time.
The Hoops did seem a bit sluggish in their performance against Ross County. Not at their usual sharpness. A little rest would do them well. It is never easy to put a 7-1 loss behind but time is the great equaliser.
The result also means that Celtic remain perfect in domestic competitions this season. And they also won't allow the Rangers to cut down the gap. A lot of big games are coming up after this break and hopefully, we will get to see Rodgers' team back at their best soon.
