Highlights - Celtic 6-0 Inverness CT
Celtic cruised into the quarter finals of the Co-operative Insurance Cup at the expense of Inverness Caley Thistle.
Georgios Samaras put Celtic ahead in the 17th minute when he re-directed a Joe Ledley drive from close range.
Gary Hooper doubled the lead four minutes later, then Samaras scored his second from an Efrain Juarez pass.
The Greece international recorded his hat-trick with a close-range effort and Anthony Stokes netted a double including a 74th minute penalty.
Ki Sung-Yueng had to block a goal-bound shot from Nick Ross almost immediately after kick-off when Shane Sutherland split the Celtic defence in two.
In the ninth minute Tuffey pulled off a fine save from Ki's 25-yard free-kick, after Grant Munro had bundled Hooper to the ground.
Celtic took the lead when Ki's corner from the right was cleared to Ledley, whose first-time drive was re-directed in to the net by Samaras from eight yards.
Moments later Samaras was sent through on goal by Juarez, but this time with only Tuffey to beat, the striker crashed his shot off the bar.
However, the former Manchester City player atoned for that miss when he played in Hooper who turned at the edge of the six-yard box and volleyed past Tuffey to double Celtic's lead.
The tie looked settled even at that early stage but in the 31st minute Jonny Hayes fired in a shot from the edge of the box which came off Fraser Forster's legs.
Then Juarez blazed the ball over the bar from close range after good work by Mark Wilson on the right, before Tuffey made a good save with his foot from Anthony Stokes.
Celtic added a third goal in the 37th minute when Samaras raced on to a Juarez pass, chipping over Tuffey and watching the ball trundle over the line.
Caley showed some spirit at the start of the second half but that was quenched when Samaras bounced Proctor off the ball inside the box before burying his low drive in to the corner of the net.
Stokes made it five from the spot after he had been felled by Tuffey inside the Caley box after racing through to take advantage of Munro's headed back pass which was too short.
The Irishman then scored the goal of the night with nine minutes remaining, driving powerfully from outside the box to give the flailing Tuffey no chance.
