Celtic fans stunned by what Callum McGregor did v Hibernian after shock news
Celtic fans were left stunned by Callum McGregor’s “sensational” strike in the 2-0 win against Hibernian at Easter Road.
An early goal from Nicolas Kuhn put Brendan Rodgers’ side a goal up after just three minutes, before a belter from McGregor sealed the victory before half-time.
This came just days after the 31-year-old midfielder announced his shock decision to retire from international football and focus on his club career.
Scotland boss Steve Clarke was spotted in the stands during the game, as Chris Sutton – speaking live on Sky Sports – questioned what the boss must be thinking.
Fans labelled the goal “stunning”, while many questioned McGregor’s decision to quit international football as a result of the display.
