Celtic got the job done against Kilmarnock, but this was hardly the convincing performance supporters would have wanted…

Celtic secured a narrow 1-0 victory against Kilmarnock to maintain a four-point advantage at the top of the Premiership, courtesy of a goal from Liam Scales. However, writer Aodhán Ó Conchobhair argues that the unconvincing performance leaves lingering questions for manager Martin O'Neill despite the club taking all three points.
The writer criticizes Benjamin Nygren's missed second-half penalty and questions O'Neill's decision to omit winger Haissem Hassan from the matchday squad. Additionally, striker Kasper Høgh saw a first-half finish disallowed following a VAR review, though Ó Conchobhair highlighted the Danish forward's encouraging overall performance.
