Kasper Hogh scored a hat-trick, his first goals for Celtic, as the Scottish champions made light of the absence of manager Martin O'Neill with a 5-1 win away to Kilmarnock yesterday.

Victory made it two wins out of two Scottish Premiership games for Glasgow giants Celtic, with 74-year-old boss O'Neill missing the trip to Rugby Park after what the club had said earlier this week was a "small procedure" in hospital.

No details were given about O'Neill's operation, which came after the veteran Northern Irish boss took charge of Celtic's win against Dundee in their first game of the season.
