Former top-flight referee Dermot Gallagher has backed Willie Collum and his refereeing team's controversial decision to allow Jota's match-winning goal to stand at Pittodrie on Wednesday night.
Celtic maintained their one point Premiership lead over arch rivals Rangers with a 3-2 win over Aberdeen but things were looking dicey when, having led 2-0 thanks to the Portuguese star and Matt O'Riley, they were suddenly pegged back.
Goals from Dons pair Christian Ramirez and Lewis Ferguson brought the home side level but not for long as Jota would strike again a minute later.
