Celtic 0-1 St Mirren
How did he miss that?
James Forrest dinks a cross into the six-yard box.
Player of the season Daizen Maeda is there, unmarked, five yards out, but the Celtic forward heads over the crossbar.
YELLOW CARDpublished at 13:56 British Summer Time
Hibernian 1-2 Rangers
Oh it's all kicked off at Easter Road. Neraysho Kasanwirjo stamps on Nicky Cadden as he tries to block a clearance.
The Hibs players are furious. There's a lot of shoving, a lot of finger-pointing.
Once it all disperses, Nick Walsh books the Rangers full-back.

Sam Dalby (pen)
Cool as you like, the big man sends Dimitar Mitov the wrong way.
United jump from sixth to fourth!
PENALTY UNITEDpublished at 13:53 British Summer Time
Dundee United 0-1 Aberdeen
Ryan Strain goes down under some contact from Jeppe Okkels in the box. After a brief check, it's confirmed.
Huge moment.

BBC Sport Scotland at Tannadice
Great header from Declan Gallagher - it's game on.
I'm sure the United players will know exactly what's going on at Celtic Park, so the home side will be looking for another while hoping Celtic can do them a favour.

Hibernian 1-2 Rangers
Tom Lawrence is on for, perhaps, his final Rangers appearance. He replaces Mohamed Diomande.
There was a small shout for a Hibs penalty there as James Tavernier collided with Junior Hoilett, but nothing given.
Postpublished at 13:49 British Summer Time
Celtic 0-1 St Mirren
St Mirren are defending their lead bravely. As it stands, they will still steal fifth.
There are nine visiting players inside their own penalty box as Celtic ping the ball around looking for an opening. They're not getting through that.
GOAL! Dundee Utd 1-1 Aberdeenpublished at 13:48 British Summer Time
Declan Gallagher
A big, big, big United goal.
They knew they just needed to keep sending in good crosses, and they've done it.
An in-swinging corner from Glenn Middleton finds Gallagher, who plants the ball in the back of the net with his head.
Aberdeen's kryptonite comes back to haunt them again. Game on!

Celtic 0-1 St Mirren
Kheredine Idessane
BBC Scotland at Celtic Park
With Nicolas Kuhn, Paulo Bernardo and Adam Idah going off, Celtic put Daizen Maeda up front, with James Forrest and Hyun-Jun Yang out wide.
Celtic are chasing a couple of goals. St Mirren know, as long as Dundee United don't score, they can afford to concede once and still make it back into Europe.
Postpublished at 13:45 British Summer Time
Dundee United 0-1 Aberdeen
Aberdeen should be 2-0 up here. It's a great move from the back and Kevin Nisbet is played through, but he side foots a shot from 16 yards over the top.
He should hit the target. What were United doing in defence, though?
GOAL! Hibernian 1-2 Rangerspublished at 13:45 British Summer Time
Nicolas Raskin
Another header from the little Belgian.
A whipped corner finds Raskin at the front post, and he gets a tiny glance on the ball to take it in.
Martin Boyle was the man supposed to be marking him.
CLOSE!published at 13:43 British Summer Time
Hibernian 1-1 Rangers
Cyriel Dessers is one on one, takes a touch to control the ball and then drags it wide.
The offside flag is up to save him...
But the replay shows it was tight. He should have buried that.
Celtic changes imminentpublished at 13:43 British Summer Time
Celtic 0-1 St Mirren
Kheredine Idessane
BBC Scotland at Celtic Park
Brendan Rodgers has seen enough.
As I suspected, changes were coming. Yang, McCowan and Forrest are stripped already.
Postpublished at 13:42 British Summer Time
Dundee United 0-1 Aberdeen
Aberdeen fling a corner in and Pape Gueye gets up well but steers his header over the bar.
Buddies go wildpublished at 13:42 British Summer Time
Celtic 0-1 St Mirren
Kheredine Idessane
BBC Scotland at Celtic Park
All the noise in the stadium is coming from a St Mirren support who cannot believe their eyes.
A goal up at Celtic Park, while Dundee United are losing at home to Aberdeen. Are they about to look out their passports again?
CLOSE!published at 13:41 British Summer Time
Dundee United 0-1 Aberdeen
Aberdeen go up the left-hand side but then lose it, and United counter.
Will Ferry hoists the ball to the back post, and Kristijan Trapanovski's diving header thuds the turf and skips over the bar.
Good chance for an equaliser.
GOAL! Celtic 0-1 St Mirrenpublished at 13:39 British Summer Time
Jonah Ayunga
Oh wow. Oh wow!
St Mirren's first real threat and they are ahead.
Liam Scales can only head a free-kick clear to the feet of Jonah Ayunga and the forward's low drive beats goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel through a sea of legs.
The Buddies are Europe-bound as it stands.
Postpublished at 13:39 British Summer Time
Celtic 0-0 St Mirren
Celtic pile forward on the counterattack.
But Nicolas Kuhn and Paulo Bernardo both fail to get a shot on target as St Mirren bodies pile back and put in vital blocks - once again.
Postpublished at 13:38 British Summer Time
Dundee United 0-1 Aberdeen
We're also back under way at Tannadice.
Awaiting kick-off at Easter Road, that should come shortly.
