The Japanese opened the scoring midway through the first half with a wonderful spin and finish alike before restoring Celtic’s lead jus after the hour mark, scoring through the legs of Allan McGregor after the ball broke for him in the box.
These two strikes took Kyogo up to 22 for the league and 28 in all competitions so far this season. He will undoubtedly have his own targets in mind and whatever they are, he is well on the way to achieving them.
He has been one of the most consistent players in Scotland this campaign and throughout, has kept his standards high and form up, his latest Team of the Week inclusion putting testament to this.
