Commons bags brace in Hoops romp

20 April 2011 22:30
Celtic moved within a point of Rangers at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League after trouncing Kilmarnock 4-0 at Rugby Park. In a breathtaking performance, a Kris Commons double and a Gary Hooper strike had the points tied up for the visitors before the interval. Anthony Stokes scored a fourth at the start of the second half and in the end the punch-drunk Ayrshire side were happy not to concede any more goals. After such a convincing victory Celtic, who have a game in hand over Rangers, will travel to Ibrox on Sunday for the last Old Firm clash of the season in confident mood.
