Five-star Celtic thrash St Mirren

Celtic warmed up for a trip to the Nou Camp by thrashing St Mirren in their Clydesdale Bank Premier League clash in Paisley.

Goals from Gary Hooper and Efe Ambrose, then Victor Wanyama's double, gave an under-strength Hoops side an unassailable interval lead against sorry-looking Saints.

Tony Watt scored with four minutes remaining to seal a commanding victory, which manager Neil Lennon would have wanted ahead of their Champions League Group G clash with Barcelona on Tuesday night.
