O’Neill hails Hartson as Celtic go top

Livingston 0 Celtic 4

The Wales striker ended a four-match goal drought with a treble to send the champions back to the top of the Scottish Premier League with a 4-0 win at Almondvale.

Hartson now has 27 goals for the campaign his best-ever season total and with Rangers being left to rue a glut of missed chances against Dundee United on Tuesday night, O'Neill believes he could have hit the goal trail at just the right time.
