WATCH: Celebration fail! One-armed Celtic forward Furuhashi falls over after Old Firm victory

  • Celtic cruised to victory in his absence

WHAT HAPPENED? In-form Furuhashi was forced off with an arm injury inside six minutes. After Celtic romped to victory without him, he emerged for the post-match celebrations with his arm in a sling - and he was slightly too enthusiastic.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: The statement win positions Celtic as favourites to win the Scottish Premiership. Ange Postecoglou's side have won each of their opening six games this season, conceding just once in that time.
