Tony Watt marked his competitive first start with a double as Celtic comfortably dispatched Inverness Caledonian Thistle 4-2 at the Caledonian Stadium despite a late rally from the home side.
With a long injury list and one eye on Wednesday’s crucial Champions League qualifier, Neil Lennon fielded a makeshift Celtic side with teenagers Watt and Filip Twardzik handed their first starts as the Hoops made six changes.
However, the fringe players immediately impressed and took a third-minute lead when Victor Wanyama headed past Ryan Esson.
Watt, who scored a double on his debut as a substitute against Motherwell last season, got his first in the 25th minute when he clipped the ball over the keeper.
