Decisive figure holds nerve from the spot to lift Celtic | OneFootball

Kelechi Iheanacho won it in the ninth minute of second half stoppage time with a cool penalty, giving Celtic a 3-2 victory at Motherwell.

He had already signalled intent in the 74th minute, taking on a shot from distance that flew wide after a fast break.

For the Bhoys, the key flashpoint arrived in the sixth minute of second half stoppage time when Auston Trusty was fouled and VAR confirmed the spot kick. Iheanacho stepped up and struck low into the bottom left, the match's defining moment.

Introduced from the bench, Iheanacho finished with two attempts, one on target, and added substance without the ball with three possessions won plus a successful tackle, underlining why his late involvement tilted the game Celtic's way.

His composed cameo gives the Hoops a springboard into their next Premiership fixture, when they host Hearts. Motherwell visit Hibernian next.
