Martin O'Neill hails Benjamin Nygren after winner moves Celtic above Rangers
- At Pittodrie, Benjamin Nygren came off the bench to score the 67th-minute winner in a 2-1 win that moved Celtic FC ahead of Rangers in the William Hill Premiership.
- Facing their third game in six days, Celtic FC needed a win after three league games without victory and have relied on substitutes in recent weeks to cope with the schedule.
- After a lengthy VAR check, officials confirmed Nygren's goal from James Forrest's low cross, with Peter Leven questioning, 'why is there not two lines drawn? There was only one line drawn on our player.'
- The result moved Celtic FC to second place, five points behind table-toppers Hearts, while Aberdeen FC must refocus on defending their Scottish Cup against Dunfermline at East End Park.
- Martin O'Neill also praised his squad after Benjamin Arthur, on-loan Brentford defender, replaced Dane Murray last-minute and made an unexpected debut; he said, 'I thought he did fine, he stepped into the game' and noted substitutes have contributed in recent weeks.
