Celtic’s captain Callum McGregor played a pivotal role in securing a 2-0 victory against St Mirren ensuring their place in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals. McGregor’s composed play and leadership helped Celtic navigate a challenging match where a makeshift defense faced difficulties.

Despite St Mirren’s pressure McGregor’s well executed passes set up key moments including Kyogo’s opening goal. The win alleviated some of the pressure on manager Brendan Rodgers who has been grappling with a challenging period.

The victory highlighted McGregor’s influence in preventing a potential crisis and maintaining composure in a testing environment. Despite recent consistent results, questions persist about Celtic’s overall performance prompting the need for increased resilience as the season progresses.
