CELTIC PLAYER RATINGS
SCOTT BAIN 6
Had practically nothing to do in the first-half. Was unlucky to concede to Jamie Murphy after saving Kevin Nisbet’s penalty.
NIR BITTON 6
Preferred to Shane Duffy in the centre of defence. Dealt with the threat posed by Kevin Nisbet well. Not to blame for either Hibernian goal.
KRISTOFFER AJER 6
Did superbly to slide in and block Martin Boyle and Sean Mackie shots early on in the game.
JEREMIE FRIMPONG 4
Not as influential going forward as normal and poor at the back. Was at fault for the second goal. Failed to pick up Kevin Nisbet.
DIEGO LAXALT 8
The Uruguayan continues to impress. He deserved to score the injury-time equaliser.
SCOTT BROWN 5
Barged over Martin Boyle needlessly early in the second-half to gift Hibs a penalty they scored from. Made way for Shane Duffy at 2-0.
CALLUM MCGREGOR 5
Looked flat after his international exertions with Scotland.
RYAN CHRSTIE 6
Is enjoying a rich vein of form. Was one of Celtic’s better performers.
TOM ROGIC 6
Showed fantastic feet whenever he received possession. But he was unable to create any scoring chances or seriously test Hibs keeper Ofir Marciano.
MOHAMED ELYOUNOUSSI 5
Headed a Christie corner wide in the first-half. Did little else of note.
ALBIAN AJETI 5
Made a minimal impact. Was replaced by Odsonne Edouard after the visitors fell behind.
SUBSTITUTES
ODSONNE EDOUARD (for Ajeti, 58) 7
Tested Marciano twice before burying his penalty.
LEIGH GRIFFITHS (Elyounoussi, 72) 5
Celtic posed more of a threat with the striker on the park. Put in the cross for the equaliser.
SHANE DUFFY (for Brown, 72) 4
Made a couple of important blocks at 2-2.
OLIVIER NTCHAM (for Rogic, 88) 3
A late replacement.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
