SEEING STARS

Aberdeen dazed and confused but Rodgers will purr watching reruns of his dynamic front-line

- CRAIG SWAN

CELTIC - 6

ABERDEEN - 0

KYOGO FURUHASHI rarely needs two looks at the target to get it right.

But the sight of Yang Hyunjun and other guns such as Luis Palma and Oh Hyeongyu causing crystal clear carnage was an extra treat for Brendan Rodgers' eyes.

The Celtic manager is now getting so sick of VAR, he wants it scrapped.

However, he will take great pleasure in watching reruns of his attackers savagely taking care of business at Parkhead.

So long as Kyogo stays fit and firing, Celtic will always have a cutting edge.

The Hoops' main man had to go off dazed just moments into the second period after a highly physical challenge from defender Slobodan Rubezic left him rubbing his head.

But he had already left Aberdeen seeing stars with his ninth goal of the season and his mates joined the destruction.

Kyogo's came from classy creative work by Yang to add to his own clinical opener and other weapons would fire loudly by the finish.

With wide options sliced due to Daizen Maeda joining Liel Abada on the sidelines, Rodgers needs talents such as Yang and Palma to prosper.

Replacing Maeda is not an easy shift but Yang's first goal for the club and then his role in Kyogo's finish is the right way for the 21-year-old to set about it.

Palma then took his Celtic tally to five since signing from Aris before sub-David Turnbull struck, paving the way for Oh to ice the cake with a double as the Dons collapsed.

As fate would have it, after the VAR gripes of Rodgers, that third arrived from the penalty spot following an intervention from the video room which got the Honduran in on the scoring act.
