In a devastating first half by Celtic, Brendan Rodgers’ side stormed to a 6-0 lead against Dundee in Paradise.
It really was the performance of champions as Celtic answered their critics in devastating fashion at Parkhead.
Six goals from six different players just prove how brilliant Celtic were as the whole team put in a superb shift.
Hands down, it was the performance of the season and the Celtic fans certainly showed their appreciation after the referee blew for half-time.
BBC touchline reporter, Jane Lewis, was left in awe at the show of appreciation from the Celtic fans the players got as they headed down the Parkhead tunnel.
Lewis said [BBC], “What a 45 minutes that was for Celtic… They were absolutely up for it from the outset.
“Every time they burst forward they looked full of danger. The home fans are loving it, literally singing in the rain.
“Dundee were unlucky with their goal being ruled offside as Curtis Main did well, but with another half to go, Dundee are well and truly down and out.
“Brilliant stuff from the champions. Celtic Park is bouncing and little wonder.”
The Celtic fans have let the team know in no uncertain terms over the last two games that what they have been watching has simply not been good enough.
After a shockingly poor performance against Kilmarnock, the fans booed the team after dropping more points in the title race.
Against Motherwell, the Celtic fans were also unhappy at the decision to take off Tomoki Iwata as Brendan Rodgers sent on Paulo Bernardo in search of a winner at Fir Park.
But last night, the fans were unanimous in their appraisal of a first half that was befitting of the Parkhead turf. And it was recognised by the Celtic boss post-match.
Celtic were simply sensational and they proved that if they give the fans reason to, they will also show their appreciation and more, to their heroes when things are going well on the park.
