Scottish leaders Celtic rebounded in a big way on Sunday with Auston Trusty enjoying a memorable day in Glasgow.
Trusty scored his first goal for the club as Brendan Rodgers’ squad defeated St. Mirren 3-0. It was a bounce-back result for the SPFL leaders after falling midweek to rivals Rangers.
Nicolas Kuhn opened the scoring in the 33rd minute for Celtic before Trusty doubled the hosts lead before halftime. Trusty’s header in the 43rd minute found the bottom right corner, giving a Celtic a two-goal advantage.

The 26-year-old Trusty completed the most passes in the match (95) and won the most duels in the match (11). He also made 10 clearances, three blocks, and completed one tackle.
