On a tough night at the very start of a new season, against a dogged Dundee, it was a familiar name that helped Celtic usher in victory.
No, not Benjamin Nygren - last season's top scorer and the man who nodded in the winner to kickstart the Scottish Premiership defence - but Kieran Tierney, the man who crossed the ball for the Swede to head in.
The left-back has arguably been Celtic's best player since the return of Martin O'Neill in January, but his renaissance has gone a little under the radar.
Perhaps that's because we expect so much from the man who once fetched Celtic a reported £25m in a move to ***** nal.
Regardless, he still registered 12 ***** ists last season, the most of any Celtic player, and scored six goals from defence.
