Quote MessageSt Johnstone are getting dragged about all over the place at the back. It's disjointed, with centre-halves two yards deeper than others. That break in the line has been ruthlessly exploited by Celtic
HT: St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic
Liel Abada's goals came either side of a Kyogo injury for Celtic in the first half at McDiarmid Park.
It looked like another hamstring issue for the Japanese striker, but it certainly hasn't knocked the visitors out of their stride.

St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic
A low cross from Tom Rogic lands at the feet of Liam Scales inside the home penalty area but goalkeeper Elliot Parish does well to block the defender's shot on the turn.
St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic
The small band of home fans inside McDiarmid Park must be feeling pretty miserable as their team heads towards an eighth successive loss. Saints have offered absolutely nothing in attack so far.
St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic
Liel Abada must have had a double helping of Brussels sprouts yesterday as has another run at the ragged home defence. He twists one way then another before his shot is deflected behind.
St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic
Liel Abada darts in behind the Saints defence once again, but this time the pass from Nir Bitton is just too heavy and Elliot Parish is out quickly to gather.
St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic
Liel Abada is through again as he races on to a Nir Bitton pass. Elliot Parish gets a touch on the early shot to deny the Israeli a hat-trick.
St Johnstone 0-2 Celtic
St Johnstone are chasing shadows as a lovely flick from Liel Abada causes consternation for the home defence. Josip Juranovic has a lash but his shot is straight at goalkeeper Elliot Parish.

Quote MessageRogic doesn't go into a traditional number 10 position, he pulls away into a little bit of space. Abada makes that penetrating run. Simple goal but a very, very good goal

Liel Abada
Liel Abada is on target again as he runs on to a perfectly weighted pass from Tom Rogic to slide an angled shot beyond Elliot Parish.

Liel Abada goes for a spectacular overhead kick, which doesn't come off but the ball falls nicely for Tom Rogic on the edge of the box. However, the shot flies high and wide.

Quote MessageSt Johnstone have now got to score a goal - something they're not very good at. If I was St Johnstone, I would be putting the ball in on top of Barkas at every single opportunity as early as you can. He's really struggled since he came to Celtic
St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic
Uh-oh. This could be bad news for Celtic.
Kyogo pulls up chasing the ball in the penalty area and now the striker is limping off to be replaced by 18-year-old Joey Dawson.
The teenager, making his senior debut, has been banging them in for the B team in the Lowland League.

Almost a second goal for the visitors as Kyogo is a fraction away from connecting with a stooping header at the back post from a corner.

Quote MessageSt Johnstone give it away. Abada was in the centre - almost nobody picking him up. What a save from Elliot Parish initially. Abada just follows up and heads it into the back of the net
Image source, SNSLiel Abada
St Johnstone give the ball away twice in quick succession and Josip Juaranovic drills a lovely cross into the path of Liel Abada.
Elliot Parish makes a terrific reflex save to stop the first-time shot but the ball loops high into the air and, despite his comparatively diminutive stature, Abada beats the goalkeeper and two defenders to the jump and nods into an empty net.

Quote MessageCeltic are actually playing Abada up alongside Kyogo. It looks like Scales will be asked to bomb up and down from a left-back position. That's a big, big change in the way Celtic have lined up
