Rangers icon Ally McCoist has raved about Celtic hero Jota after the "genius" Parkhead star downed Aberdeen with an early goal of the season contender.
The 59-year-old football nut enjoyed a weekend packed with live action and admitted he was keen to take in Ange Postecoglou's champions on flag day at Celtic Park. And McCoist admits he was impressed by the football served up as Aberdeen were unable to halt Celtic on the opening day.
McCoist was also impressed by Rangers' rousing comeback on Saturday as Scott Arfield and James Tavernier struck to sink David Martindale's dogged Livingston side at the Tony Macaroni Arena. But he reserved his loftiest praise for Celtic and their £6m Portuguese winger.
