Yesterday, Celtic secured their second consecutive victory in the Scottish Premiership this season with a resounding 2-0 victory over Hibernian.
Nicolas Kuhn and Callum McGregor registered their first goals of the season in a lightning-fast first half, with the latter strike being a potential goal of the season contender.
The Bhoys were able to manage the game with relative ease once play resumed after the interval. Kieron Bowie nearly provided the hosts with a late respite, but his strike rebounded off the upright, ensuring that Brendan Rodgers’ team maintained their second consecutive clean sheet in league play.
In Leith, Celtic executed their most dominant performance in years, despite their inconsistent record at Easter Road in recent years.
There was scarcely a save that Kasper Schmeichel had to make for the visitors. After another impressive victory for the Bhoys, the Denmark goalkeeper has now disclosed his emotions.
Kasper Schmeichel utilizes Instagram.
Schmeichel demonstrated his apparent satisfaction with his new position by posting images from the Bhoys’ away trip to Hibernian on Instagram. He accompanied the images with the caption “Two from two to kick things off (with a green love heart)” in the midst of the comfortable Easter Road victory.
It is true that the 37-year-old did not have a significant amount of involvement with his hands between the posts. Although the majority of his work was in his possession, it is accurate to say that he was most prominent in his distribution.
Schmeichel executed 53 of his 56 attempted passes (95%) and six of his nine long balls (67%), assuming the responsibility of constructing from the back without hesitation, according to Fotmob.
He will be expected to generate significant saves for Celtic in the future. Nevertheless, his initial impression of Celtic has been quite favorable.
This weekend, the Bhoys will once again compete against Hibernian in the Premier Sports Cup. You have the impression that this side is still in the process of advancing as the weeks progress. It is our hope that Rodgers and his team will be able to maintain their aggressive approach against David Gray’s team.
