Some things are more important than sport.
Celtic have always been a club noted for their relationship with the local community, with players and fans alike often showing support for those who have fallen on hard times.
So when Leigh Griffiths opened the scoring with a cracking outside-the-box strike during Celtic's 4-1 home victory over Aberdeen on Saturday afternoon, he decided to dedicate his goal to a young Celtic fan who recently passed away.
Hoops supporter Kieran McDade suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch while training with Dunbeth Football Club last week.
The 13-year-old passed away in hospital but he will live long in the memory of all those involved with Celtic, the club he followed passionately throughout his life.
And he would have enjoyed seeing Griffiths smash in this stormer off the woodwork.
Coincidentally, Celtic had organised a minute's applause to take place in the 13th minute in honour of Kieran, which is just when Griffiths found the net.
And the striker was quick to honour the memory of the young fan by celebrating his opener with a jersey with 'RIP Kieran 13' emblazoned on the back.

It truly was a beautiful gesture and one that we're sure will go a long way with his family.
