WATCH: Scott Sinclair is fast becoming a Celtic favourite as he curls in second goal in four days

A very popular man

It really doesn’t take very long to win over Celtic fans.

Scott Sinclair seems to have managed it in less than 100 hours as he made his second appearance for the Hoops on Wednesday night.

Following up from his late winner over Hearts on Sunday, Sinclair netted a classy third for Celtic in the Scottish League Cup.

In a routine 5-0 victory for Celtic, throughout which they looked a class above the opposition, Sinclair cut in from the left and, in very little space, curled a gorgeous strike beyond Motherwell’s ‘keeper.

It’s early days yet but, already, Hoops fans believe they have found their new saviour.
