Manager: It was a wonder goal from a special player

For the second game in a row, it was a late, late show at Celtic Park. On Saturday, it was a last-gasp equaliser which took the Scottish Cup tie against Dundee into extra-time and ultimately, victory. Tonight, it was an added time wonder goal from Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain which delivered a 2-1 victory over Livingston and three vital Premiership points. Speaking to Celtic TV after the game, Martin O’Neill praised the goalscorer for producing a stunning finish to win the game. “It was late again for us, but in all honesty, we should have been three or four up in the first 15 minutes of the game,” the Celtic manager said. “We got one but it’s never enough and we allowed them back into the game with a penalty kick. “Then we’re driving and driving and driving, and it looked as if it might not happen, but then Alex comes up with a wonder goal – a wonder goal from a special player – and even though it was later, it was great for us to win. “Hopefully he’s just beginning and that was terrific. It was a class goal from a player who’s been class throughout his career.”FixturesCeltic Vs. Livingston – Wed, Feb 11th 2026, 19:45
