Høgh hat-trick helps Celtic cruise past Kilmarnock as O'Neill recovers

Kasper Høgh scored a hat-trick, his first goals for Celtic, as the Scottish champions secured a 5-1 win at Kilmarnock on Sunday. The victory made it two wins from two Premiership matches for Celtic.

The match went ahead without manager Martin O'Neill, who missed the trip to Rugby Park after undergoing a "small procedure" in hospital earlier this week. According to The Guardian, the 74-year-old is "doing better" following the procedure.

Celtic's dominant display ensured O'Neill's absence was not felt on the pitch, with Høgh's treble leading the way. The result keeps Celtic in early-season form as they look to defend their title. Related match highlights can be found on this site.
