    St Mirren 0-2 Celtic

    Toyosi Olusanya looks to race on to a ball over the top.

    It creates a bit of panic and Greg Taylor boots the ball off the onrushing Joe Hart's toes.

    Another Celtic corner as Matt O'Riley's pass is blocked behind.

    Again, the set play comes to nothing.

    For the third year running, Daizen Maeda has scored Celtic's first goal of the calendar year.

    All three goals have come within the first five minutes of games too.

    He scored at Ibrox last year, opening the scoring in a 2-2 draw, and netted on his debut against Hibernian in 2022 in a 2-0 win.

    An inswinging free-kick is nodded towards the back post by Kyogo but Maik Nawrocki can't provide the finishing touch.

    Big chance.

    Former St Mirren manager on BBC Sportsound

    The desire of Celtic to go back and do the ugly side of it, that is the difference.

    That is where St Mirren miss the creativity and desire of Mark O'Hara.

    St Mirren lump a deep free-kick into the Celtic box.

    James Bolton flicks it on but it comes to nothing.

    A Celtic corner is dropped on to the boot of Paulo Bernardo to hit a volley but St Mirren get bodies in the way.

    A ball over the top bounces out of the reach of Alex Gogic and Kyogo.

    St Mirren get away with one.

    Celtic are enjoying over 72% of the ball.

    Just 55 seconds were on the clock when Daizen Maeda slipped in the opener.

    Scott Tanser turns behind for a Celtic corner.

    It's worked out the edge of the box then comes to nothing after a short passage of play.

    Toyosi Olusanya is getting about.

    He tries to power through on goal but Maik Nawrocki thwarts him with a fine sliding tackle.

    Toyosi Olusanya capitalises on poor Celtic defending but fires way wide of Joe Hart's goal.
