    It's a wonderful finish from Christie. Really, really good. Celtic have deserved it. People think they are struggling in Europe but certainly domestically they are not giving up this treble lightly

    Hearts 0-3 Celtic

    The Celtic fans are in good voice now as followers of Hearts start to stream towards the Murrayfield exits.

    Zdenek Zlamal has to deal with a smokebomb which has landed near his goal. He handles it a lot better than he did with that earlier weak effort from Christie.

    Ryan Christie

    It's a screamer from Ryan Christie! The ball breaks his way at the edge of the penalty area and the Celtic midfielder steers it into the top corner with a cool, side-foot effort.

    There's been a big change since half-time. You can almost hear the team talk from Brendan Rodgers. They've almost blown Hearts away.

    Soon after zipping a shot wide from the edge of the box, Hearts midfielder Oliver Bozanic trots off to be replaced by Callumn Morrison.

    That is unforgivable goalkeeping. The shot was a tame one from the edge of the box and somehow he spills it

    James Forrest

    Oh dear. A shocker from goalkeeper Zdenek Zlamal, who gets into all sorts of bother from a tame Ryan Christie shot. He manages to claw the ball away as it dribbles over the line but only straight to James Forrest, who slams it into an unguarded net.

    Scott Sinclair goes down rather easily as he realises he's never getting past man mountain Clevid Dikamona. Willie Collum just shakes his head at the muted Celtic appeals for another penalty.

    Oliver Bozanic runs on to a nice lofted pass from Demi Mitchell but the Hearts midfielder is off balance as he shoots from an angle and it's a comfortable save for Scott Bain.

    Hearts 0-1 Celtic

    Celtic are defending a corner one moment, then racing up the park the next as Tom Rogic slips a pass through for Odsonne Edouard. The striker has the chance to shoot with his left but wants to cut back on to his right and that allows covering defender Michael Smith to get a nibble on the ball.

    If it was up the other end, I would've expected a penalty. Hearts haven't started this second half. Now Hearts are going to have to come out and play

    Celtic are going for the kill as Kieran Tierney gallops up the left to support Scott Sinclair and the full-back's fizzing cross is nodded over the top by Odsonne Edouard.

    Willie Collum was standing five yards away from it. Certainly it looked like Bozanic caught Chrsitie's feet

    A stuttering run from Scott Sinclair and he tucks the ball low into the corner.

    A daft challenge from Bozanic since Christie was going nowhere really at the edge of the box.

    James Forrest gathers some momentum with a run to the byline but the Celtic winger can only screw the ball out of play as he tries to pick out a team-mate in a busy penalty box.

    Hearts have only lost once in 16 outings this season and Celtic have won all 20 domestic cup ties under Brendan Rodgers, so it's little wonder this game is so tight.
