Celtic won the game 2-1 thanks to a late winner from James Forrest after Ryan Kent had cancelled out Odsonne Edouard’s first-half opener.

Alfredo Morelos was shown a red card for an elbow on Scott Brown during the first half and Andy Halliday was sent off after the game for his involvement in an angry clash between the two sides.
