Aston Villa hat-trick hero Morgan Rogers was blown away by the travelling Celtic supporters last night.
The attacker netted thrice in Villa's 4-2 win over the Parkhead side, with two of his goals coming inside the opening five minutes.
Rogers opened the scoring early doors with a smart close-range finish before doubling his side's advantage moments later.
The 22-year-old then completed his hat-trick in the dying embers of the second half to wrap up the three points.

It wasn't all plain sailing for Villa, though, because, despite going two up early on, Celtic fought back.
Adam Idah netted a quick-fire brace, and by the 38th minute, the visitors were level.
Rogers was blown away by the scenes in the Celtic section of Villa Park when they made it 2-2: "That away end," he said (The Scottish Sun).
"Especially when they got the two goals back, I've never seen the away end like that. I love it."
While Celtic ended their league phase campaign on a loss, they will look forward to a knockout-round play-off tie against either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich.
The first leg will be played in just under a fortnight, with Brendan Rodgers admitting facing either of the European giants will be a 'huge challenge'.
For now, though, the 52-year-old turns his attention back to domestic matters, with his side set to face Motherwell at Fir Park in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday afternoon.
