Watch: Duo of Calamitous Scott Bain Errors Against Sligo

Celtic goalkeeper Scott Bain was suspect for two goals this evening as the Hoops beat Sligo Rovers 3-2.

The Bhoys headed across the Irish Sea to take on the Rovers in a mid-season friendly at the Showgrounds tonight.

Manager Brendan Rodgers fielded a team mixed with senior fringe players and exciting academy prospects.

Although Luis Palma put the visitors ahead early doors with a back-post-tap-in, strikes from Kailin Barlow and Simon Power turned the Game on its head. Palma, though, scored twice late on to give the Celts a dramatic win.

The Honduran winger will undoubtedly take acclaim for tonight, but focus will surround stopper Bain, who was at fault for two goals.

Barlow’s shot from inside the box, which looked like a simple effort for Bain to deal with, ended up in the back of the net to draw Sligo level in the first half.

Soon after they drew themselves level, Sligo took the lead. Power’s strike from a distance beat Bain at his near post:

If the 32-year-old’s position as a fringe player wasn’t already coherent, his performance this evening only reinstated it.

Granted, Bain hasn’t played much Football recently, but he should have been doing much better with the two goals he conceded tonight.
