Celtic produced a dominant display as they wiped the floor with Shamrock Rovers in their final friendly before their Champions League qualifier against Linfield on Friday.

Brendan Rodgers’ side were on it from the beginning as they romped to victory at the Tallaght Stadium.

They harassed their Irish opponents into mistakes and punished them with their superior quality.

Mikael Lustig scored the opener with a neat finish before Stuart Armstrong fired home.

Dynamic duo Moussa Dembele and Scott Sinclair added the third and fourth for Celtic before the break.

It was more of the same in the second half. James Forrest finished from a tight angle before Sinclair and Armstrong bagged their second goals.

The Parkhead side weren’t finished and Jonny Hayes grabbed his first goal for the club off the bench after great work from Sinclair.

It was the same story moments later as Rogic nodded home another sumptuous cross from the former Aston Villa man.

It was the perfect work out for the Scottish champions ahead of their Euro test.

The only downside was an injury to captain Scott Brown who hobbled off in the first half and was replaced by Nir Bitton.
