Benjamin Nygren marked his first Celtic goal of the season with a powerful header, latching onto a precise cross from Kieran Tierney to hand the home side the lead against Dundee.

The delivery from Tierney was inch-perfect, curling into the danger area at precisely the right moment, and Nygren rose well to direct the ball into the net and set Celtic on their way.

The goal arrived early in the contest at Celtic Park, lifting the home support and giving Celtic control of the match from the front foot.
