St Johnstone 0-1 Ross County

BBC Scotland at MacDiarmid Park
Craig Levein has been fairly passive on the sidelines... Until now! The St Johnstone boss is urging his players on by shouting instructions and pointing to where the ball should be played. It's frustrating viewing for him at the moment though.
GREAT SAVE!published at 21:07 British Summer Time 15 May
Hibernian 3-0 Motherwell
Motherwell wake from their slumber.
Top scorer Theo Bair should probably score after being teed up by an accurate square pass around 12 yards from goal.
The big striker can only fire straight at Jojo Wollacott. It's a good stop.
PENALTY APPEALpublished at 21:06 British Summer Time 15 May
St Johnstone 0-1 Ross County
Huge penalty shout at St Johnstone. Dave Keltjens goes down under a challenge from Jack Baldwin and clutches his shin.
Nick Walsh blows his whistle, taking an eternity to make a decision, and eventually awards a goal kick. No VAR intervention, either.
Baldwin certainly catches the home defender but Keltjens is already on his way down.
Top quality strike from Hoilettpublished at 21:06 British Summer Time 15 May

That free kick from Junior Hoilett had quality written all over it.
The home crowd clearly feel that justice has been done after what they feel was a very harsh penalty award.

Martin Boyle
Hibs are stroking it around nicely, although Motherwell's defence leaves plenty to be desired.
Lewis Stevenson swings in a cross from the left, Dan Casey can only flick into Martin Boyle's path and the winger cuts inside and rattles home his second goal of the evening.
GOAL Kilmarnock 0-5 Celticpublished at 21:03 British Summer Time 15 May
Matt O'Riley
Two goals and an assist for Celtic's main man.
Matt O'Riley collects a pass from Nicolas Kuhn in the area and coolly slots past the keeper.
GOAL Aberdeen 1-1 Livingstonpublished at 21:02 British Summer Time 15 May
Junior Hoilett
The moment of quality the hosts were looking for.
Junior Hoilett stands over a free-kick just over 20 yards from goal and he arrows it precisely into the net.
Shamal George scrambled over but failed to palm it round the post.

Aberdeen 0-1 Livingston
Here's that Ester Sokler handball...

Tete Yengi (pen)
Tete Yengi lifts his left-footed penalty into the roof of the top, sensational stuff. The award of the penalty, however, is pretty interesting.
Referee Alan Muir gets sent to the screen and awards the spot-kick for a handball by Ester Sokler when a Livingston cross is sent in.
The Dons striker is perplexed with the decision as he had an opposition player climbing up his back as he goes for the ball, with plenty of pushing and shoving going on too.
PENALTY TO LIVINGSTONpublished at 20:55 British Summer Time 15 May
Aberdeen 0-0 Livingston
Handball given... Aberdeen are not happy at all.
Postpublished at 20:55 British Summer Time 15 May
St Mirren 1-1 Hearts
Hearts put together a nice move. Cammy Devlin and Kyosuke Tagawa combine well, as they did for the goal, and the striker shapes a shot towards the target.
St Mirren defender Richard Taylor slides in to make a good block.
KICK-OFFpublished at 20:54 British Summer Time 15 May
Just waiting for the game at Easter Road to resume. All the others are up and running again.
HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 20:53 British Summer Time 15 May
Kilmarnock 0-4 Celtic
Robbie Deas rises at the back post to head off Joe Hart's crossbar.
Far better from Kilmarnock, but it's surely too late now.

HT: Hibernian 2-0 Motherwell
Lewis Stevenson has an emotional moment during his 600th appearance for Hibs - his last in green and white at Easter Road.

DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 20:49 British Summer Time 15 May
Kilmarnock 0-4 Celtic
Oh, comeback cancelled... Marley Watkins went a fraction early and the goal is ruled out for offside.
Joe Hart had been getting treatment throughout that VAR check but he's fine to continue. Looked like he got a dunt on the back of the head from Liam Donnelly.
GOAL Kilmarnock 1-4 Celticpublished at 20:46 British Summer Time 15 May
Danny Armstrong
The title race is back on! Okay, we're joking.
But it's another top goal, Danny Armstrong bending into the far corner after Joe Hart makes a mess of saving Marley Watkins' effort.
GOAL Kilmarnock 0-4 Celticpublished at 20:44 British Summer Time 15 May
Matt O'Riley
Goodness me, that's an absolute rocket.
Matt O'Riley lasers one into the top-right corner from the edge of the box.
Celtic's player of the season. The Premiership's player of the season?
PENALTY APPEALpublished at 20:44 British Summer Time 15 May
Kilmarnock 0-3 Celtic
The ball clearly strikes Callum McGregor's hand at a Kilmarnock corner but, presumably because it hit his head first, the referee and the VAR say no.

HT: Aberdeen 0-0 Livingston
Tyrone Smith
BBC Sport Scotland at Pittodrie
A standing ovation at Pittodrie as Aberdeen's league winning U-18 side perform a lap of honour.
Who knows, maybe of a few of these kids will be doing a turn for the top team in years to come?

Kilmarnock 0-3 Celtic
A sight of goal for Matty Kennedy, whose well-hit strike on the volley is blocked behind.
