Watch: Duo of Calamitous Scott Bain Errors Against Sligo
Tonight at the Showgrounds, the Bhoys will play a mid-season friendly against the Rovers, having traveled across the Irish Sea.
Brendan Rodgers, the manager, selected a squad that had both attractive academy prospects and senior periphery players.
Luis Palma gave the visitors an early advantage with a back-post tap-in, but goals from Simon Power and Kailin Barlow completely changed the course of the match. But in the closing minutes, Palma scored twice to give the Celts a thrilling victory.
Without a doubt, the Honduran winger will be praised for his performance today, but goalkeeper Bain will get attention because he was responsible for two goals.
Sligo leveled the score in the first half thanks to a Barlow shot from within the area that appeared to be an easy one for Bain to handle.
To the pleasure of the home crowd, the third-choice Celtic goalie mishandled the ball in:
Sligo took the lead shortly after they had leveled. Power’s long-range shot defeated Bain at his near post:
The 32-year-old’s performance this evening only solidified, if his status as a fringe player wasn’t previously clear.
Even if Bain hasn’t played much football lately, he ought to have been performing much better considering the two goals he gave up this evening.
