Celtic TV cameras have captured a unique angle of Kyogo Furuhashi's match-winning strike against Rangers.
The Japanese international struck just before half-time at Ibrox yesterday to ensure Brendan Rodgers' side took a huge three points in the title race.
Amid an ongoing ticket spat between the two clubs, the Parkhead club rejected an offer of around 700 tickets, citing safety concerns.
Hoops fans watching at home and in pubs and clubs saw Kyogo fire in the winner to take Celtic four points clear of their rivals after only four league games, going into the international break.
Club TV cameras have now captured an angle of Kyogo's strike from behind the goal that sparked a "sound of silence" inside Ibrox.
Good Morning, Celts 🌄💚

Celtic players can be seen celebrating while Rangers fans vent their frustrations in the stands.
Captain Callum McGregor claims Celtic’s 1-0 win over Rangers at Ibrox was made even sweeter with home fans only in attendance.
He said: “It’s probably like a different fixture now with no away supporters in.
“But, again, that can galvanise you. It’s a really difficult moment to come here.
“It’s almost like a siege mentality where it’s everyone in the stadium against you.
“That’s when you need your big players and big personality to step up and I thought we did that.
“It probably makes it even sweeter. The reason why we play football is obviously to play in front of fans but if you can’t do it, the next best thing is to make them proud wherever they are watching and hopefully we did that today.
“I always think when the going gets tough and the chips are down, there’s no better thing (than) to come out and perform like that and make a statement.
“We are happy with our day’s work. But we know there’s a long way to go.
“I’ve been over the course many, many times. I’ve won these ones and I’ve lost them.
“You win it, you enjoy today, then you draw a line under it. Then when you come back from the international break you are good to go again.
“There’s no better place to come and win and to do it under the circumstances we have, we have to use it as a springboard now.
“There’s no point in winning today and going back and starting to drop points again. It makes this pointless.
“We understand. Everybody feels good in there (the dressing room) but we are under no illusions that we have to kick on.
“You’ve got four weeks between every international break now. You have to go strong, have your break then go strong and finish the first half of the season very well.
“We know what’s at stake now and we have to get to work.”
