Benjamin Nygren delighted to make impact off the bench in Aberdeen win | OneFootball

It was another big goal from Benjamin Nygren that sealed all three points for the Hoops against Aberdeen.

The Swede has picked up a knack of scoring against the Dons, and he made it three goals in three games against the Pittodrie side on Wednesday evening.

His latest strike proved to be a crucial one, ultimately sealing the win for Celtic on their travels.

Having grabbed his 19th strike of the campaign, which was also his 15th in the league, the midfielder was delighted to make an impact off the bench.

Speaking in the aftermath of the win, Nygren reflected on what could be another important three points in a hard-fought win.

“Aberdeen is a difficult away game. It was a hard-fought win today. But, in the end I think we deserved that result.

“That has always been my mentality since I was a small kid, that when you come off the bench, you want to come in and decide the game.

“Especially when it was 1-1. We needed to get the win, go forward. So, I’m happy to score today.

“It is so many games, but we have been staying together the whole season, and we will continue to do that.”
