Sinclair scores debut winner as Rodgers’ Celtic beat Hearts


(Reuters) - Scott Sinclair marked his debut with a late winner to ensure Celtic got their title defence off to a winning start under new coach Brendan Rodgers with a 2-1 home victory over Hearts in the Scottish Premier League on Sunday.

Substitute Sinclair settled a tetchy encounter in the 81st minute when he turned Leigh Griffiths' cross past Jack Hamilton only hours after his transfer from Aston Villa was confirmed.
