    Yang Hyun-Jun

    Yet another fantastic header from Yang!

    A cruel scoreline on St Mirren, in truth. But it's another devastating finish from Celtic.

    Five additional minutes to come in Paisley.

    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound

    An absolutely wonderful goal.

    The control to beat the defender and a beautiful slot past the keeper.

    GOAL St Mirren 2-4 Celtic

    Daizen Maeda

    Maeda cannot be stopped!

    It's a hopeful ball in between the St Mirren centre-backs, but the Japan international makes it all on his own.

    It's a fabulous touch and fantastic finish.

    The lines were drawn, but the magnificent Maeda was on.

    You're taking a chance by sliding in at this stage of the game.

  10. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Alistair Johnston slides in on Roland Iwodu inside the box.

    The Celtic full-back gets the ball, but then does catch the St Mirren substitute.

    Play goes on...

  11. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Ryan Alebiosu really has got himself about tonight.

    If it wasn't for giving away that needless penalty, you'd say he's had a right decent game.

    Gets another cross in, but, no takers.

  12. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Caelon Boyd-Munce makes way for Roland Idowu.

    St Mirren need a spark from somewhere late in the day...

  13. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Arne Engels is the latest to let fly from distance.

    Nowhere near as close as McCowan, though...

  14. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Warra strike.

    Luke McCowan puts his foot right through it, but, the ball smacks off the post.

    Would've been a cracker.

  15. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Owen Oseni and Greg Kiltie are on for the Buddies, while Killian Phillips and Toyosi Olusanya depart.

  16. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Pat Bonner
    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound

    He's [Yang] made some impact since he's come on.

  17. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Yang Hyun-Jun has the ball in the back of the net again, but his celebrations are cut short - kinda - by the offside flag.

  18. St Mirren 2-3 Celtic

    Richard Taylor rises high to meet a corner and he really should do better.

    Waaay off target.

    I think that was Yang's second touch.

    A really nice header to give Reo Hatate's cross and vision the finish it deserved.

    I did say we weren't done for goals...
