Kyogo Celtic goal was never in doubt as Ange Postecoglou's faith in star didn't waver

It took him a few chances, but Kyogo Furuhashi rounded off Celtic' s 4-0 Premier Sports Cup win over Motherwell after a luckless spell in front of the posts. But Ange Postecoglou always felt they would come.

HIs team have been guilty of missing numerous chances, especially in Europe, and Kyogo was one of several who saw good ones go abegging against RB Leipzig in the Champions League. However, the champions hit Hibs for six at the weekend as they rediscovered their scoring touch at Parkhead,

But it looked for a spell like Wednesday night might be one of those nights for the Hoops. Kyogo missed an early sitter before crashing a long-range effort off the bar. But once again, Liel Abada was the man on the spot to fire them into a half-time lead. They found their shooting boots after the interval though. Abada notched his and Celtic's second before Reo Hatate showed soft feet to seal the win with a third. And Kyogo got his goal at the end, tapping in after Abada had hit the post.
