Celtic made it four wins out of four in the SWPL, but they had to battle against a Partick Thistle side who showed great resilience in this enthralling game.

Celtic did take the lead in spectacular fashion. Issy Fisher's stunning long range volley beat Ava Easdon after just five minutes. She didn't even take a touch before executing her fabulous effort.

Thistle heads didn't go down, though. They regrouped and, after they hit the woodwork, Imogen Lockcake equalised on 24 minutes. On her 100th appearance for the club, she showed great strength and persistence to draw her side level.

There were no more goals in the first half, but there were plenty of talking points, with Celtic defender Fionnuala Morgan embroiled in two controversial moments.

The Northern Ireland international was shown a yellow card for what looked a high tackle on Sophie Townsley, then appeared to shove Townsley in the back, but there was no second booking.

The second half was equally entertaining.

Celtic took the lead early on as Hannah Jordan pounced on a slack pass back from Thistle's Morgan Hay to put her side ahead.

But just as in the first half, Thistle hit back. Ade Gay got a hand to Sophie Townsley's effort but couldn't keep it out.

However, as the clock ticked towards full time, Celtic found a winner as Lisa Robertson headed in from the corner.
