Celtic pulls off another nail-biting comeback with Nicolas Kuhn's late winner—who needs a magic show when you've got the Scottish Premiership?

In yet another thrilling episode of Scottish Premiership action, Celtic FC showcased their resilience and fighting spirit with a dramatic 2-1 comeback win against Ross County. The match, held at the Global Energy Stadium, had fans on the edge of their seats as it looked like Celtic might slip up against a determined Ross County side. Just when onlookers thought Celtic's momentum was waning after their midweek Champions League loss to Borussia Dortmund, Nicolas Kühn swooped in with an 88th-minute winner to keep their perfect league record intact.

The first half had been a struggle for the reigning champions, with Ross County taking the lead thanks to a penalty converted by Ronan Hale in the 42nd minute. Celtic headed into the locker rooms at halftime trailing for the first time in the league this season. However, manager Brendan Rodgers wasn't about to let his side fester in disappointment. His halftime talk seemed to invigorate the team, encouraging them to keep the Celtic tradition of resilience alive.

The second half saw the tide turn as Celtic cranked up the heat. They equalized through a determined effort, reigniting the hope of their traveling supporters. With the clock ticking down and pressure mounting, it seemed like Celtic would have to settle for a draw—until Kühn pulled a stunning late strike out of the hat. His goal not only snatched victory but also showcased his potential as one of the team's rising stars. The ecstatic celebrations that ensued were a testament to both player spirit and the loyal Celtic fans who continue to believe in their team.

Brendan Rodgers couldn't have been prouder after the match, praising his players for their tenacity and persistence. This win solidifies Celtic's position at the top of the Premiership table and keeps the pressure on their rivals. With their perfect league record now intact, will they be able to continue this exhilarating pace? The next games will surely be crucial, and fans can expect more late-game drama.

Fun fact: Nicolas Kühn’s late winner was the third such goal scored by Celtic this season, proving they never say die! Did you know that Celtic is the only team to have played in every season of the Scottish Premiership since its creation in 2013? With a legacy like that, any comeback must be considered merely business as usual!
