    It was a great finish, great play between the two of them, a good header from a winger but the defender just didn't know what he was doing at the back post.

    Yang Hyun-Jun

    Celtic hit the front again.

    It's a lovely ball to the back-post from Reo Hatate and with a real striker's header, Yang nods in.

    I think Maeda has to play up front for Celtic now.

    He's at such a high level I think he's got to go and be the Celtic centre-forward now.

    Lazy from the experienced Alex Gogic there.

    It's a change to see if Celtic can get some sort of rhythm in this game.

    Don't see this often... Callum McGregor is coming off for Celtic.

    So too is Adam Idah and Nicholas Kuhn.

    On come Jota, Luke McCowan and Yang Hyun-Jun.

    How Toyosi Olusanya hasn't scored tonight is beyond me.

    Another decent chance goes begging for the St Mirren striker.

  9. Jota time?published at 18:59 Greenwich Mean Time 1 March

    Brendan Rodgers has just had a glance up to his subs warming up behind Zach Hemming's goal.

    The obvious one to bring on is Jota for Adam Idah, with Daizen Maeda moving through the middle.

    Celtic haven't really been at it since the break.

    What a ball in, Declan John.

    It has the Celtic defence at sixes and sevens, until Arne Engels gets rid for a corner.

    Mikael Mandron is indeed off. He's replaced by James Scott.

    Big shoes to fill.

    This will be a big worry for St Mirren.

    I think this is arguably Mikael Mandron's best spell in a St Mirren shirt. He's really been the focal point.

    With the injury to Jonah Ayunga, they're already short in attack.

    Mikael Mandron drags a shot agonisingly wide, and he appears to be in some agony too.

    This is turning into a mini-classic this evening in Paisley.

    Exactly what the game needed - an early equaliser in this second half from St Mirren.

    They've more than matched the league leaders in these opening 50 minutes. More goals in this one? I'd say so.

    That goal is all about Alebiosu. We wondered how he'd react at half-time but that's him at his best.

    Phillips will hit balls a lot cleaner than he has there but what a start for St Mirren.

    Killian Phillips

    WOW! Phenomenal from Phillips.

    A few folk might say he didn't mean it, and while they're probably right, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt here.

    He arrives onto the ball inside the box and digs it out of the deck, into the roof of the net.
