Nine in a row for Celtic

AFP, GLASGOW: Stuart Armstrong bagged a brace as Celtic made it nine league wins in a row with a 4-1 victory at Partick Thistle on Friday to go 11 points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
Armstrong tapped in a cross from Leigh Griffiths in the 39th minute to put Celtic on course for a comfortable victory.
Griffiths, making his first start in over a month, was the provider again as he played a short free-kick for Armstrong to arrow a shot past Tomas Cerny in the 48th minute before the Celtic striker got on the scoresheet himself less than a minute later with a curling strike.
Partick pulled one back on the hour as some sloppy marking allowed Liam Lindsay to head Sean Welsh’s floated free-kick into the box past Craig Gordon.
The home side had the ball in the net again four minutes later, but Welsh’s headed effort was ruled out for offside.
