  1. Five minutes added on

    St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic

    Into stoppage time now...

  2. YELLOW CARDS

    St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic

    It's all kicking off inside the Celtic penalty box, with the visitors reacting angrily to a Liam Gordon foul on Christopher Jullien.

    Fraser Forster is also booked for his angry reaction.

  3. Edouard makes way for Bayo

    St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic

    A rare outing for Vakoun Bayo as he takes over from Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard to eat up some time.

  4. O'Halloran on for Saints

    St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic

    St Johnstone bring on winger Michael O'Halloran, with David Wotherspoon dashing off.

    Can the home side find a way back?

  5. 'First mistake from Saints'

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Pat Bonner

    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound

    Quote Message: Somebody's got to take that near post area and attack the ball, from a defender's point of view. Should Zander Clark have anticipated it? Maybe someone came across in front of him. They've got to match Jullien. It's the first mistake they've made so far, but it's from a set piece.
  6. GOAL St Johnstone 0-1 Celtic

    Ryan Christie

    Christopher Jullien is claiming a touch but a free kick from Ryan Christie appears to miss everyone and ends up in the back of the net.

    GOAL
  7. YELLOW CARD

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    James Forrest is sent high into the air by a late lunge from Jamie McCart. A nailed on booking for the former Celtic youth defender.

  8. Post update

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Another opening for the home side as Stevie May receives a cut-back inside the penalty area. However, his shot lacks power and Kristoffer Ajer gets in the way.

  9. 'Great response from St Johnstone'

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Pat Bonner

    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound

    Quote Message: It's a great response from St Johnstone. It's on tenterhooks at the moment how this game will go. They're creating a good few chances just now. Celtic had their chance to bury it, but when you don't take your chances, who knows what could happen?
  10. Saints send for Kane, Hayes on for Celtic

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    A couple of changes as Chris Kane comes on for Saints and Jonny Hayes enters the fray for Celtic.

    Callum Hendry and Greg Taylor are the players withdrawn.

  11. Post update

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Now Stevie May is hauled back at the edge of the box and St Johnstone have a free kick in a dangerous spot. Scott Tanser blasts it straight into the defensive wall and big Tommy Wright is pulling his hair out on the sidelines.

  12. Post update

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Stevie May is nearly on to a ball in behind the Celtic defence as it holds up in the mud, but Fraser Forster is alive to the danger and races out to boot clear.

  13. Clark 'keeping St Johnstone in the game'

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Pat Bonner

    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound

    Quote Message: Credit again to Zander Clark, that's two very good saves in quick succession. He's keeping them in the game at the moment.
  14. HITS THE WOODWORK

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    How did that stay out? Zander Clark tips an effort from Odsonne Edouard on to the post. The ball falls inside the six yard box and Christopher Jullien looks certain to sweep the ball home but a Saints defender gets a boot in and the faintest touch sends the ball inches wide.

    Christopher Jullien cannot believe he hasn't scored for Celtic

  15. GREAT SAVE!

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Fantastic reflexes from Zander Clark who manages to get in the way of a Ryan Christie shot from 10 yards.

    Anywhere other than straight at the keeper and that's a goal.

  16. Post update

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Matt Butcher does well to turn away from two opponents at the edge of the Celtic penalty box and has a pop with his weaker left foot. It goes wide by a couple of feet.

  17. Rogic on for Griffiths

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Celtic make that change and Leigh Griffiths is the player making way for Aussie playmaker Tom Rogic.

  18. CLOSE!

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Callum McGregor surges up the park and the ball breaks to Ryan Christie inside the penalty area. He jinks away from a couple of defenders in blue and flashes a shot narrowly wide.

  19. Post update

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Tom Rogic has removed his tracksuit and is getting a few words of instruction on the Celtic bench. Who will be coming off for the visitors?

  20. 'St Johnstone hanging in'

    St Johnstone 0-0 Celtic

    Pat Bonner

    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound

    Quote Message: Celtic are now creating the chances. That's four decent chances since the start of the half and St Johnstone are hanging in. Celtic look like the team that could end up scoring that vital goal.
