Kilmarnock 1-4 Celtic as Hoops too hot to handle at Rugby Park - 3 things we learned

Celtic romped to a 17th consecutive victory in all competitions with an emphatic 4-1 win against Kilmarnock at Rugby Park, to equal Brendan Rodgers' wining streak as boss.

Once again Ange Postecoglou's men came flying out of the blocks to race into a 4-0 lead within 27 minutes. Kyogo Furhuhashi bagged his 29th goal of the season on seven minutes, pouncing on some indecisive defending from the home side, to cut inside from the right hand side of the box and fire a left-footed shot under the arms of Killie stopper Sam Walker.

They got their second five minutes later, when Alistair Johnston found space down the right and supplied a cross for Daizen Maeda, who produced a smart headed finish at the back post. On 18 minutes Matt O'Riley got in on the act to add a third, converting from inside the area after good work from Greg Taylor.
