Lennon wants Hooper to stay

Celtic 4 Inverness CT 1

The Hoops went into the game only needing a point but they did not come to life until after a dull, goalless first-half when goals from the former Scunthorpe forward, to take his season tally to 28, and a strike by stand-in skipper Joe Ledley in between, got the celebrations fully underway.

Georgios Samaras, on for Anthony Stokes, completed the scoring with a virtuoso goal two minutes from time before Aaron Doran got a late consolation for the visitors.
