Quick Review
A cracking game, possibly the best of the season in Scotland. We quickly went down two nil which began he wailing and gnashing of teeth (as it does) as the Hunbos decided to celebrate a happy new year. Up stepped the most unlikely hero Stephen Pearson who was subbed on and changed the whole face of the game. First he grabbed a splendid goal to then push the side to an unlikely comeback victory, 3-2 win, with McManus grabbing a late double at the death. Pearson was though the Man of the Match, and this is the game he will be best remembered for the most. A great performance and some great commitment by the guy, deserves all the plaudits that came his way. A genuinely great game to have watched too!
...and GIRUY to the Hunbos!
Trivia
Two late goals from Stephen McManus stretched Celtic's lead in the SPL to seven points as they came from two behind
