Hibernian vs Celtic - Post Match Thread

Simps. When Brown plays we win.

 

Had to go into a college open day this morning and had this to record at home. So glad I got to watch the whole match without knowing the result!

First half we didnt get going but the 2nd half was a blinder! special mention to Kayal Izzy stokes and Hooper.

Hooper is unreal first match back and his touch never left him! what a goal!

I'm glad stokes is back scoring as he's one of my favourite players, He has it and he showed it today!
I Just hope we can turn it on quicker next time because the opposition will score and deflate us so * in gear from the getgo lhads!

8 points clear Hail Hail

Mon the Accies!

 

Excellent performance. Great to see hooper back and scoring. Stokes and kayal were both quality.

 

Well done today Bhoys! After Hamilton that was an important result and we sailed it in the 2nd half! I am in love with Kayal, guy is a legend!! Great goal from stokesy and hopefully that gives him some confidence back, nice to see Hooper back and scoring also! Special mention to Izzy, immense once again!

There are 10 other players on the pitch. Some of them actually make assists and score goals too.

 

Thanks for reminding me. I wasn't aware of that. I have only been supporting Celtic 30+ years

 

brilliant result and to see super hooper score a goal was good, izzy played outstanding and great day for us 8 points clear of the monkeys

 

Well if you are aware of it then why make a statement that indicates that Brown is the reason we win?

 

Great win for us today. Hopefully the convincing nature of the win and the goals will really give us confidence in the final third. We needed that as we have really struggled to turn possession into clear cut chances and goals since the Aberdeen blow out.
The pitch today was again terrible. It really is one of the biggest problems for me with the spl. How are we going to ever raise the level of play when so many of the pitches are so bad. McCourt and Forrest were hardly in the game although to be fair a pitch like that doesn't help players like them. The first 40 minutes looked all too much like Wednesday with Celtic controlling the ball but not doing anything threatening with it. But then that last 5 minutes before half time it all came good. First Majstorovic's chance from the header then the nice sequence getting Hooper in. Followed quickly by that brilliant goal from Hooper. Sheer class from Hooper and exactly what we have missed up front the last month since he got injured.
The second half I thought was excellent. We dominated from start to finish. Got the second goal early on and killed the game off with Stokes great second goal. Exactly the type of performance we needed. Well done to Rogne and Majstorovic they were very solid while Kayal and Brown were in complete control in midfield.

 

They already have, hibs beat them three nil at Ibrox

 

Great win today keep it up lads, glad to see Gary Hooper back.

 

Hibs 0 Celtic 3.
Virtually all of the first half was dull to say the least until Celtic got their goal just before halftime, then Celtic dominated the second half, although it was a very poor Hibs team.
Again I still dont see why many Tic fans have high hopes for young Forrest, he doesnt do it for me.
I have said about Majstorovic that he is the worst header of a ball attempting to score from dead ball situations I have ever seen, again he missed a sitter that was a foul for Celtic played into the Hibs goal! LoL
Kayal was verygood again as was Izaguirre, Kayal was getting bumped around a bit by the Hibs players.
Fitba wise there isnt much to comment on Hibs being so poor, thought the referee had a decent game!
Forster 7
Wilson 6
Rogne 6.5
Majstorovic 6.5
Izaguirre 7 MOTM
Forrest 5.5
Kayal 7
Brown 6
McCourt 6
Stokes 7
Hooper 6.5 <!-- google_ad_section_end --><!--IBF.ATTACHMENT_338510-->

 

Cracking win and what a player we have in Hooper, that was a Bergkamp esque finish today, pure quality.

 

Good result today but like Hamilton we were really lackadaisical at the start of the game and seemed to take ages to get at a very poor Hibs team!

Paddy merits his place in the starting line up but feel he's better from the bench as an impact player the last thing heavy leged players want is a fresh McCourt running and turning them!

 

Great win!!! What a finish by Gary Hooper!

 

Take it the Hibs support have gave up going by the number of empty seats in their end.

 

Stokes second goal is something special much like the goal he scored against the Huns when at hibs, it shows he has ability to absolutly stun teams.

It's a shame though that it seems like he needs a partner upfront.

although in the end great result and what we needed after the Accies game and again certain players continue to shine like Izzy and Kayal.
