Unique Angle – Daizen’s Double, significance of Callum McGregor | OneFootball

Nicolas Kuhn and Daizen Maeda have been some double act for Celtic this season and the return of the skipper Callum McGregor made all the difference in the comfortable 3-0 win over Hearts at Celtic Park on Saturday afternoon…

Rendered the Hearts early press as ineffective

The game was over as a contest by the interval with Nicolas Kuhn setting up two and Calmac the other, the crucial opener which rendered the Hearts early press as ineffective and by the second half it was all about keeping the score down.

Celtic could have added more but there was essentially no need, with the manager sensibly utilising his bench to the full and bring back both James Forrest and Paulo Bernardo from injury.

The three goals were all crackers and we were surprised that there was no Unique Angle to revel in yesterday but it’s up now for the support to enjoy. Loving the Daizen song over the tannoy here, hopefully we hear that plenty of times before the season is out.
