JOTA AND ADAM Idah both hit spectacular goals as Celtic moved 16 points clear of Rangers in the William Hill Premiership with a routine 3-0 home victory over Dundee United.
The 35th-minute goal doubled Celtic’s lead after Callum McGregor’s opener and Jota created several chances as he gave manager Brendan Rodgers some food for thought ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League play-off second leg against Bayern Munich. Maeda, Greg Taylor, Arne Engels and Nicolas Kuhn were all handed substitute roles after starting against Bayern.
But McGregor took matters into his own hands after collecting a pass from Yang Hyun-jun. The midfielder burst away from Campbell and showed quick feet when faced with the United back four to make space to drill home from 16 yards into the bottom corner.
