The champions made it two wins from two to start the season but were given a game by the Staggies.
Celtic fans have put on a display in tribute to the late John 'Yogi' Hughes in the crowd in Dingwall. And any doubt was removed when Liel bada added a wonderful third in stoppage time. The Portuguese combines good feet and strangth to beat to players and open up a sight of goal. But Laidlaw gets down and throws out a right hand to keep the ball out of the net. But Ross Laidlaw watched it all the way, takes half a step to his left and gathers with both hands. The portguese goes down the right and sends a floated cross to the back stick. Maeda meets it with a header, but it's too high and Laidlaw is relieved to see it over the bar. That should force Ross County to come out a bit more and there should be more space at the top end of the pitch for Celtic. Celtic have to go back to the drawing board after managing to get themsevles in front. County are caught napping and Jenz gets across his man to galnce a header past Laidlaw in front of the away end. A quock corner allows Jota to whip in a great ball to the six yard box. Kyogo was down in the box in the aftermath of the goal.

It is often assumed this is law, but it’s not, the SFA voluntarily sign up to the UEFA mandate. The SPFL and SFA should be leading the way on ensuring this is permanently changed. Many will argue there are other, less legitimate methods of watching the game.

Ange Postecoglou, however, wanted more from his defending champions and a trip to Dingwall to face Ross County presents an opportunity. The Hoops have suffered ...
In attack, superstar fan favourite Jota impressed on flag day with a belter of a strike, and scored a crucial goal up north last season. The Hoops have suffered a setback with the injury of midfielder Reo Hatate, who was replaced against the Dons with a knock. He will likely be supported by Daizen Maeda, and despite firing a blank last week, Kyogo could lead the line.
Ange Postecoglou has revealed why Celtic star, Stephen Welsh, was left out of the squad for the game against Ross County.
Ultimately, it worked out quite well for Celtic to say the least. Thus, Welsh being out was a worry for Celtic to say the least and Moritz Jenz, who is on loan from Ligue 1 side Lorient, started the game instead. The youngster had enjoyed a brilliant opening game of the season against Aberdeen, when he had not only kept a clean sheet but also scored the opener as well.
It looked as though the game may not have been going the Hoops' way at one point although late goals from Moritz Jenz and Liel Abada made sure of the points ...
The 24 year old was relatively quiet before being subbed off at half time, the reason for which remains unclear although he did appear to pick up a knock in the first half. Kyogo got his 2022/23 account up and running today, finishing deftly from inside the box to break the deadlock just after half time. In spite of these missed opportunities, O’Riley was still lively and seems to filling the boots of Tom Rogic amply. McGregor was also willing to make a few forward runs in this afternoon’s match into the opposition box and what he brings to the Celtic side is noticeably missed when he’s not there. It was a crucial debut goal from Jenz and hopefully this is only the beginning for the centre back who really caught the eye today. We’ve come to expect consistency from Cameron Carter-Vickers at the back and that’s what we got today.
But it was the home side that responded through Alex Iacovitti, who headed the ball into the corner from a set-piece, to bring Malky Mackay's side back into the ...
Jota 9 - Made life a nuisance for the County defence early on, creating a few chances. Moritz Jenz 8 - A bit of confidence and a steady showing from the debutant. Alex Iacovitti 8 - Part of the resolute backline, and had a half chance with a header. Matt O'Riley 6 - Saw a half chance on the volley go wide, before two chances went awry. Almost like a different player in the second half, making it hard for Celtic defence. A nice lofted ball for the equaliser. Connor Randall 5 - Made a few early clearances under pressure but was one of the players drawn into fouls. Liel Abada then put the icing on the cake with a superb curling finish to seal the three points. Stopped a sure-fire Hoops winner before the second goal. It was another floated corner that stumped the Hoops, who tried to fire up a response with some substitutes. The Staggies could barely get out of their 18-yard box in the opening half an hour, despite a goalless first thirty minutes, while County were drawn into some harsh fouls on the champions. Matt O'Riley saw a handful chances blocked at the last minute of the first period, before a reaction Ross Laidlaw save stopped a sure-fire Daizen Maeda opener.

Giorgos Giakoumakis has had to spend a large amount of time sitting on the bench. And if Maeda was forced to spend some time on the sidelines, it does feel like the club have enough options at the moment to deal with it. It was only against Ross County that Carl Starfelt made his way back into the matchday squad, taking his place on the bench, after missing the entirety of pre-season.
