Celtic player ratings vs Kilmarnock as Matt O'Riley shows class in stunning Rugby Park display

Celtic blew away Kilmarnock in a stunning opening half hour at Rugby Park.

Ange Postecoglou's men found the net FOUR times in the first 27 minutes of the game and also missed from the penalty spot as they put the game out of sight in Ayrshire in emphatic style. Kyogo Furuhashi opened the scoring in superb fashion after capitalising on a slack pass before doing all the hard work on his own to make the breakthrough.

Five minutes later Daizen Maeda headed home from an Alistair Johnston cross before Matt O'Riley grabbed his first of the afternoon to put the Hoops three goals to the good before the 20-minute mark. Four minutes later Kyogo had the perfect chance to grab his 30th goal of the campaign but his penalty crashed off the post after sending keeper Sam Walker the wrong way. However, it wasn't a long wait for a fourth goal of the game with O'Riley curling home to complete a stunning opening period. Liam Donnelly grabbed a consolation for the hosts on the stroke of half-time as they steadied the ship in the second period. Here's how we rated the Hoops.
