Going behind away from home can change the whole rhythm of a league game, especially against a side prepared to defend the box and make every duel count. That is why this result stands out.
Celtic had to respond to:
They did exactly that. The key detail is simple: they were behind, then found 2 goals in the second half.
There was a personal recovery story inside the wider team one. Scales was involved at both ends of the match, first with the handball that led to the opener, then with the equaliser that reset the contest.
That kind of swing can define a player’s afternoon. Instead of shrinking from the moment, Scales stayed involved and helped turn the game.
Then came Yang, whose winner underlined an important theme for title challengers: not every victory is clean, but the best sides still find the decisive action. Reports also said there were other big moments ruled out by the officials, which only added to the sense that this was a match Celtic had to fight for rather than simply control.
A winning start only gains real weight when a team proves it can survive an off-day. Celtic did not have the comfort of scoring first or cruising through the game. They had to recover, adjust and finish stronger.
That resilience is often what keeps an early run alive.
The next question is whether Celtic can turn this kind of comeback into a cleaner performance in their next Premiership outing. For now, the headline is clear: winning start preserved, pressure absorbed, another away test passed.
