""He's so good," Rodgers told Premier Sports of Tounekti. "He's got a bit of everything - he can beat a man, go either way, slip runners in as well and it's nice for him to get his goal.""
""You have to be really professional, and we were. The players passed it well and created some really good moments in the game. We're building. It's hard to go through nine months in the season being hot. With everything going on in the window, it's taken some time for players to come in. I can see the fluency and the rhythm of the team growing each day.""
Sebastian Tounekti scored his first goal for Celtic after joining from Hammarby, contributing to a 4-0 Scottish League Cup quarter-final win over Partick Thistle. Yang Hyun-Jun and Liam Scales put Celtic 2-0 up before Tounekti finished a clever give-and-go with Kelechi Iheanacho. Luke McGowan added a second-half goal as Celtic advanced to the last four and now prepare for an Old Firm derby against Rangers in November. The side registered back-to-back wins while integrating new arrivals, showing increasing fluency, rhythm and professional composure despite imperfect performances.
