Scales on Mark as Celtic Come From Behind at St Mirren

Yang Hyun-jun scored the winner as Celtic extended their perfect domestic start and will miss four matches before joining South Korea for the Asian Games.

  • Celtic came from behind to defeat St Mirren 2-1 on Saturday at Marbill Coaches Stadium, extending their flawless domestic start to the season.
  • St Mirren striker Nikolas Agrafiotis provided an early lead by converting a penalty after Celtic defender Liam Scales committed a handball in the box.
  • Scales redeemed himself six minutes after the interval with an equalizing header, before winger Yang Hyun-jun netted the winner on a counter-attack midway through the second half.
  • Celtic manager Martin O'Neill admitted the match was difficult, saying, "They played very, very well indeed. Caused us plenty of problems and took the lead." O'Neill noted it was the first time this season the team lacked full control.
  • Winger Yang Hyun-jun will miss Celtic's next four matches, including the Europa League opener, as he departs to represent South Korea at the Asian Games in Japan later this month.
