Morris is a player I’ve admired for a long time from when he was down at Fleetwood Town. His speed is such a threat and Celtic got it wrong dealing with him in the build-up to the equaliser.

It was a brilliant move from Thelin because they asked him to do a midfield role without the ball and then be a winger with the ball.

The Swede did some something different and it paid dividends.

It should catch the eye of the rest of Scottish football, too. Perhaps even down the road where the underdog story has been strong this season.

I have a big history with Celtic, but I’m from Aberdeen and I could only watch those trophy-lifting scenes with joy.

The Dons showed that with discipline and determination, Celtic can be stopped.

And if they had belief before, they’ll have even more belief now.

Chairman Dave Cormack spoke post-match about the finances, the income that will come from this win and the confirmation of European group-stage football.

That in itself is huge. It will give the club and the fans, in addition to the players, more belief.

For now, though, it’s bedlam. It’s all about the partying and celebrating, which they deserve to do.

They’ve created a slice of history here. And maybe it’s just the start…
