The Story in 60 Seconds

Pundit Kris Boyd has urged Celtic striker Kasper Hogh not to be afraid of missing chances as the forward endures a poor run of form. Celtic's £11.5million record signing has scored in only one of his last 13 matches for club and country, failing to find the net again during Saturday's 2-0 Scottish Premiership win over Motherwell at Fir Park.

Boyd noted that Hogh chose to set up Benjamin Nygren rather than take a shot himself, arguing that the Danish international lacks confidence and needs to shoot more often. Camilo Duran scored Celtic's other goal in the victory under manager Martin O'Neill, while winger Jota made his return from an 18-month cruciate injury.
