Celtic fans were on the edge of their seats as their team secured a thrilling victory at Fir Park with a last-minute comeback against Motherwell.

Luis Palma's emotional celebration after scoring the third goal for Celtic added a touch of personal sentiment to the match, showcasing the camaraderie and support within the team. The winger's gesture, dedicated to a fellow Honduran, resonated with fans and highlighted the unity within the squad. Additionally, the images of the damaged seats in the away end housing Celtic fans at Fir Park serve as a reminder of the passionate and spirited nature of football rivalries, adding an element of intensity to the game beyond the pitch.
