Aiden McGeady and Kris Boyd expressed their admiration for the Celtic player following the team’s victory against Motherwell.

It has been some time since Celtic participated in Premiership competition. In recent weeks, attention has shifted from the Scottish Cup to Champions division matches; however,

Brendan Rodgers refocused on the fundamental aspects of the division, achieving a victory at Fir Park on Sunday.Celtic triumphed over Motherwell with a score of 3-1, as Daizen Maeda initiated the scoring within the first minute of play. Adam Idah contributed to his tally with a second goal following his previous brace at Villa Park, while Jota marked his return by finding the back of the net.

It now means that the champions are ten points clear at the summit of the table – with a game in hand – and are heading towards another title with a cigar in hand. It is entirely reasonable that all attention is focused on Jota both prior to and following the match, particularly in light of the fact that he commemorated his second debut in an exemplary manner.

But another man returning to the XI – after his recent suspension – was also given his flowers because Maeda just continues going from strength to strength in Celtic colours. Aiden McGeady and Kris Boyd commend Daizen Maeda following Celtic’s victory over Motherwell.

It is indeed disheartening that Maeda will be suspended for the initial leg against Bayern Munich, as his exceptional abilities, both in possession and in defensive contributions, will be significantly missed. Aiden McGeady commented on his ‘fantastic’ header against Motherwell, noting the ‘difficulty’ of displacing him from the squad, even in light of Jota’s return.

Kris Boyd added by lauding the Japan star’s precision and how you ‘never know where he is’, as he told Sky Sports Football (02/02/25 at 3:55 pm). “An exceptional goal,” remarked McGeady in reference to Maeda’s opening strike.

“I believe that Motherwell encountered significant difficulties during the initial 25 minutes, particularly within their low back five formation, with Kaleta notably failing to engage effectively with Maeda.”

“However, it is important to note that Maeda’s performance is exemplary; he executes the actions characteristic of both an adept striker and a proficient wide player.” He has returned for a second opportunity and executed a remarkable climax. Boyd remarked, “Returning to the subject of Maeda’s goal.”

One contemplates his acceleration from a stationary position and the rapidity with which he can distance himself from you.However, even a mere displacement of one or two yards can effectively manoeuvre the defenders. They are perpetually unaware of his whereabouts. Indeed, Kaleta could have performed more admirably. However, when you consistently begin to search for him.

His whereabouts remain uncertain, yet it was an exceptional goal. McGeady subsequently remarked, “Regarding Maeda, it is a situation characterised by the pressure associated with Jota’s impending return.” However, it will be challenging to exclude Maeda from the team, to phrase it accordingly.
