Chris Sutton slams Kilmarnock 'monstrosity' amid Celtic salute

Chris Sutton has taken to social media to rip into Kilmarnock's plastic pitch.

BT Sport pundit Sutton thought it might be a difficult game on a pitch he described as a "monstrosity" but Celtic were streets ahead on the day and were 4-0 up after half an hour.

Goals from Kyogo, Daizen Maeda and a double from Matt O'Riley had the Hoops cruising. Japanese striker Kyogo also missed a penalty.

It looked like the game might be a sore one for Derek McInnes' men but they performed much better in the second half and even managed to get a goal back through Liam Donnelly.

And Sutton was full of praise for his old team, now 12 points clear in the Premiership once again.

He said: "I thought it might be tricky for Celtic on that monstrosity of a pitch…

"The standard this team have set under Ange Postecoglou are phenomenal."
