FT: Kilmarnock 0-2 Celtic
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers told Sportsound: "Obviously we had to deal with a lot of pressure and direct balls, and deal with a lot of duels. But to keep a clean sheet and work that hard, especially after midweek, then show moments of quality to get goals, I'm very proud of the team.
"They play a pressure game, and we had to be strong and aggressive and show our spirit and to get the three points is very pleasing.
"A year ago, that result would maybe have gone the other way, but that was a real test of some different qualities and we came through it so it shows the team is in a good place.
"Nicolas [Kuhn] is growing and developing. He is disappointed with the one he missed, but his run, touch and finish were sublime. Adding numbers to his game is one of the things we talked about and it's testament to him that he's done that."
