Choosing a penalty or free-kick taker is normally down to the manager, but the St Johnstone players took the decision into their own hands - in the most comical way.
Graham Carey and Cammy MacPherson were both lining up a free-kick in the 72nd minute against Celtic at McDiarmid Park earlier today. The Saints were down 3-1 at the time and needed a moment of magic to get back into the game. The pair couldn't decide between them who would take the free-kick on the edge of the Celtic box so they thought a game of rock, paper, scissors could resolve the issue.
Footage from Sky Sports showed MacPherson and Carey playing a game with MacPherson eventually coming out the winner after his paper covered Carey's rock. After the big build-up nothing came of the free-kick. Ange Postecoglou's side went on to score a fourth to make it 4-1 thanks to goals from an Andy Considine own goal, Kyogo Furuhashi, Aaron Mooy and David Turnbull.
Considine turned a Furuhashi cross into his own net in the 13th minute and the Japan striker notched midway through the first half before wide-man Drey Wright pulled a goal back three minutes later after a sensational long strike.
Midfielder Aaron Mooy restored Celtic's two-goal lead in the 38th minute with Considine - appearing in his 600th club game - sent off by referee David Dickinson in added time for a pull on Oh Hyeon-gyu, with fellow substitute David Turnbull adding the fourth from the resulting free-kick.
