Celtic fans delighted as Scott Sinclair scores winner just hours after signing

Debuts don't come much better than this.

Scott Sinclair was unveiled as a Celtic player on Sunday morning and, just a few hours later, he started on the bench for the Hoops' Scottish Premiership opener at Hearts. The winger, brought in from Aston Villa, took to the pitch on the hour mark with the scoreline poised at 1-1. https://twitter.com/celticfc/status/762215977014689792 Brendan Rodgers, who had worked with Sinclair at Swansea, put his faith in the 27-year-old to salvage the result and he did just that. Sinclair popped up with a winner with just 10 minutes on the clock when he tucked away a cross from Leigh Griffiths after a lung-busting counter attack. https://twitter.com/ReadCeltic/status/762354958792613888 That's one way to endear yourself to a new fanbase. https://twitter.com/biglhist/status/762300322253574144 https://twitter.com/oliviarose18xx/status/762300798437101568 https://twitter.com/JGirasoli/status/762295638583283713 https://twitter.com/LoganMcC2000/status/762300397608398848 https://twitter.com/JohnHartson10/status/762304451562594304 https://twitter.com/trevor8sinclair/status/762304253662724096 https://twitter.com/chrissyghirl/status/762307527774121984 https://twitter.com/OShea19_84/status/762306455710072832 https://twitter.com/KevBhoy7/status/762304661906915328 https://twitter.com/AndyMcGregor95/status/762301539591589888 https://twitter.com/mickf1888/status/762301432448049153 Sinclair starred for Rodgers' Swansea City as they won promotion to the Premier League back in 2011, scoring a hat-trick in the play off final victory over Reading. Spells at Manchester City and Villa followed, and while he impressed fleetingly for the Midlands club - having initially joined on loan - he was unable to help them avoid relegation to the second tier. He joins a number of high-profile Celtic signings since Rodgers took over this summer, with Kolo Touré and Moussa Dembélé also moving north of the border.
