Outstanding performance
Kilmarnock•AttackerCeltic completed a stunning comeback from 2-0 down to claim victory at Rugby Park in what was a tale of two halves. Kilmarnock dominated the opening period through Tyreece John-Jules and Joe Hugill's strikes, exploiting Celtic's sluggish start. Manager's triple substitution at halftime proved decisive, with Sebastian Tounekti and Benjamin Nygren transforming the visitors' tempo and creativity in the second half. Julián Araujo's dramatic 90th-minute winner capped a remarkable turnaround that keeps Celtic's title ambitions firmly on track, while Kilmarnock will rue their inability to see out what would have been a statement victory.
