It was an afternoon of frustration for the Bhoys, who snatched all three points in the 96th minute after Odsonne Edouard tapped home.

Lennon, who remains in charge until the end of the season after Brendan Rodgers left for Leicester last month, has recorded three wins and draw since returning.

“It was massive that he came in,” Forrest told reporters. “All the boys have bought into it straight away.

“He’s been back for a couple of weeks now and it feels as though he’s never been away. It just feels right him being at Celtic.

“We want to push on now and make sure that stays.”
