Celtic put this one to bed early on Wednesday night, tearing into Aberdeen from the off and leaving Celtic Park with the game already won by half-time. The scoreline read 3-0 at the break and there was little sign of Aberdeen getting back into it once the interval whistle went. Celtic didn't need to add to the tally in the second half, content to see out a comfortable evening's work in front of their own fans. For Aberdeen, it's a chastening night on the road and a result that will sting given how the game had all but slipped away inside the opening 45 minutes. Celtic, meanwhile, move on with confidence sky high after a 3-0 win that never really looked in doubt. Three points, a clean sheet, and a job done well before most fans had settled into their seats.
