The Hoops had a crucial Saturday to remember as they showed why they are champions.
The mercurial Aussie's centre-piece role in an epic Fir Park salvage job was this time recast in the form of an Englishman-turned-Dane who collected kisses with aplomb from jubilant supporters. It was during Rodgers' first era as boss in 2016 one delightful December day that a playmaker completed a comeback from 2-0 down to 4-3 conquerors in a season where title glory was claimed.
This game up until the 87th minute was far from a classic. Motherwell had lost back-to-back 1-0 games heading into this but in the clashes with St Mirren and Rangers, they really should have taken at least a point. Step forward Blair Spittal. He had the composure to slide Motherwell back on level terms when all hopes looked lost and the Fir Park young team were keen to lap it up and entered the pitch in jubilation. Less than two minutes later and it was a turn of supporters in the Tommy McLean Stand to soak up last-minute euphoria.
Fans want to see steps in the Champions League and perhaps that is where Rodgers will be truly judged second time around. But when it comes to domestic scene, one thing that hasn't and on current evidence won't change from his first reign is that never-say-die Celtic mentality.
