On a day when Rangers came out rocking they left the east end limping as the champions showed who is boss
Sizzling Celtic dismantled Rangers 3-0 to underline their status as the dominant force in Scottish football.
However, the gung-ho nature of committing men forward brings its own risks and Celtic were the narrowest of offside calls from taking the lead as Nicolas Kuhn was flagged before he teed Kyogo up to finish a warp-speed counter-attack. But there would be no pardons in the 17th-minute when Maeda was on alert at the back stick to turn Alistair Johnston's outstretched cross and get one over James Tavernier once again.
It's five points separating these great rivals after four games but, in truth, they are currently in different leagues as Celtic stamped their authority over this fixture.'That's a Brendan team' It was a passing remark from pre-season, one made by a former Chelsea pupil of his when watching Celtic paste the Blues but there's something to it – this is an identikit Rodgers side and those who follow the Hoops are revelling in it.
Jota, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Odsonne Edouard are prime examples of the benefits of trying before you buy and now Bernardo can join an esteemed club. Matt O'Riley's departure is a void but Bernardo is developing into a bonafide star, tigerish in tackle and slick in possession. He was brilliant during his 60 minutes on the pitch.
