Celtic got a crucial three points as Oh struck late to sicken St Mirren...
CELTIC dug out a hard-fought win against an impressive St Mirren outfit as Oh climbed off the bench to bag a crucial three points for the champions.
Neither he nor Luis Palma got out of first gear though on the night, save for Forrest’s cutback that led to the award of Celtic’s missed penalty, and there appeared to be greater impetus in their attack – as was the case at the weekend – when the starting wingers were replaced. For all the talk of the lack of quality on Celtic’s bench over the past few days, their subs certainly played a vital role in earning a priceless three points.Given his lack of recent game time, and the fact that his relationship with the Celtic support seems a little fraught at present given criticism of his performances, this felt like a big night for the Turnbull.
He followed that up by winning his side a penalty, his shot being blocked by the arm of Saints defender Alex Gogic, but subsequently stepped up and rattled his spot kick off the right-hand post. There was another worrying moment when Phillips and Callum McGregor both swung at the same ball into the Celtic area, fortune favouring the pair as the ball skewed wide.
Greg Kiltie did brilliantly on the left wing, cutting back onto his right foot and swinging a wicked delivery directly onto the head of McMenamin, who calmly finished beyond a helpless Joe Hart.
