Celtic added another impressive victory to their Scottish Premiership campaign this past weekend, securing a hard-fought 2-1 win over Ross County. The match was not without controversy, however, as winger Nicolas Kuhn found himself in the spotlight for celebrating with the Celtic away fans after scoring the late winner. Former referee Bobby Madden came to the defense of referee Kevin Clancy’s decision not to send off Kuhn, stating that celebrations of this nature no longer result in mandatory cautions according to current guidelines. On the other hand, Rangers legend Kris Boyd disagreed, expressing his belief that Kuhn should have been shown a red card for his actions.
Despite the debate surrounding Kuhn’s celebration, the Hoops continue their unbeaten run in the league this season. They currently sit level on points with Aberdeen at the top of the table, setting up an exciting title race in the coming weeks. Manager Brendan Rodgers commended his team’s resilience in breaking down a disciplined Ross County side, highlighting the need for improved penetration and movement in their play.
Looking ahead, Celtic are gearing up for a crucial home clash against Aberdeen after the international break. The team will be looking to maintain their momentum with another victory and assert their dominance in the league. Additionally, a challenging Champions League away trip to face Atalanta awaits them, providing another opportunity for the Hoops to test their mettle against top European competition. Amidst a busy schedule, Celtic will be aiming to continue their winning ways and uphold their high standards on all fronts.
