Celtic stars given jubilant Fir Park send off as footage captures Ange Postecoglou sharing a moment with fans

Celtic enjoyed another fine day at the office at Fir Park on Sunday - and were given a send-off to match.

Ange Postecoglou 's side followed up their derby dismantling of Rangers in midweek by smashing four past the Steelmen to retain their place at the top of the Premiership.

A Tom Rogic double plus goals from Liel Abada and Daizen Maeda made light work of Graham Alexander's side.

Post-match, the Celtic players departed via the away end and it gave jublilant supporters the chance to greet the team following another swashbuckling display.

Footage shows the likes of Matt O'Riley and Jota acknowledging fans on their way past.

But the warmest reception was reserved for manager Postecoglou, who saluted punters with a grin as they shared a moment after full-time.

Postecoglou had earlier commended his players for maintaining high standards in the wake of an emotionally-charged derby.

"I was pleased with that, especially after Wednesday night," he said.

"The players invested a lot emotionally and physically and credit to the players, I thought it was first rate.

"We are human beings. It's not just like I say 'we focus on the next one' and they can put it to bed. It takes its toll.

"I watched training on Saturday and, even the guys who didn't play, the training was relentless and really competitive. So I kind of knew we would be fine."
