Kyogo Furuhashi and Matt O’Riley scored for the second game running as Celtic beat Aberdeen 3-1 at Pittodrie. Furuhashi capitalised on a defensive error to put the champions back in front inside half an hour, after Bojan Miovski had cancelled out Liel Abada’s early opener.
Aberdeen caused Celtic plenty of problems in an enthralling first half with Graeme Shinnie harrying in midfield, Shayden Morris impressing on his first Pittodrie start and the front two posing a constant threat in behind. But Celtic enjoyed much more control in the second half and O’Riley’s late goal ensured they went back to the top of the table after two matches.
