Australian star Tom Rogic has scored two goals overnight, as Celtic held onto their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership table.
The 29-year-old opened the account for Celtic in their 4-0 victory over Motherwell, sending a screamer over the keeper's head in style.
Rogic struck again just before the break, putting his side further in front, before Daizen Maeda finished the job with less than 20 minutes remaining.
We are an unstoppable bulldozer and unquestionably a real goal machine. From the bouquet of goals scored, I greet you with this brilliant ⚽️💥 by @Tom_Rogic that I think was the most magical of today's challenge. Hail Hail.🍀🍀#CelticFC💚 #MOTCEL #cinchPrem #COYBIG pic.twitter.com/hlBJNwojlE

Rogic was full of praise for his side after the win, claiming they have been on top in Scotland for more than just this season.
“We’ve been top of the pile for the last decade," he said.
"Obviously last season was disappointing, but it’s a familiar position for a lot of us.
"It’s just about keep working hard, heads down, focus on the next game and don’t get too carried away with it."

Ange Postecoglou turned his attention to the Celtic fans after the match.
“We’re upholding the values of this football club, not just in terms of winning but the way we play our football," he said.
"I want them to be proud of us. I hope they are proud on the journey home tonight. I am sure they will enjoy tonight, I don’t know how work will go tomorrow for most of them.
“As I said to the players, we had 60,000 in tonight and I’m sure a lot of them walked in with some problems in their life.
"For this 95 minutes we made them forget that and feel good and that’s something special.”
