PARTICK THISTLE  1  CELTIC  3

Scorers: Mbuyi-Mutombo;  Griffiths, Dembele, Rogic

Views from the two managers:

Partick Thistle manager Alan Archibald: "We decided to sit off them, we didn't think we had the legs to deal with their pace. We got a lift with the goal, but we switched off twice in the last 15 minutes, which killed us. The young lads equipped themselves well." 

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers: "We haven't played well but we got the job done. It was two fantastic balls in by Cristian Gamboa and two really good finishes. Both full-backs were very good; Emilio Izaguirre was fantastic given he's been away so long."
