Watch as Celtic loanee scores debut screamer for Scott Brown's Ayr

Celtic loanee Jude Bonnar scored a screamer on his debut for Scott Brown's Ayr United on Saturday. 

The Somerset Park side took on Arbroath in the group stages of the Premier Sports Cup. 

Bonnar, who made his senior Celtic bow last season in a 5-1 victory over Aberdeen, signed for Ayr on the day of the game on loan.

He was immediately included in the matchday squad and came on as a substitute in the 66th minute. 

It didn't take the 19-year-old long to make an impact from there. Indeed, eight minutes after being introduced, Bonnar picked up the ball on the edge of the box, skipped past his man and found the top-right corner with a sublime strike. 

It was his side's third in a dominant 4-0 win. 

Speaking after the game, Bonnar said [AyrUnitedFC on X]: "Right from when I came in, all the boys and the staff have welcomed me very well. 

"When I heard I had the opportunity to come here, I agreed straight away.

"It's good to be here, getting professional games under my belt. 

"My goal, I just dropped to the edge of the box, seen I had a lot of space, got the ball off Marco [Rus], worked my way through and just got my shot off."
