    We're almost at the 90-minute mark and St Johnstone have the ball deep in Celtic territory. That's where they will want to stay.

    Ryan Christie weaves his way into the penalty area from the right and takes aim for the far post with a sharp, curling shot.

    Zander Clark is equal to it, beating the ball away.

    Mohamed Elyounoussi

    Celtic respond almost immediately and there is more than a slice of fortune about the equaliser as Mohamed Elyounoussi, just on for Kristoffer Ajer, flicks a header towards the back post and the ball loops all the way in.

    Chris Kane

    Is that the end of the line for Neil Lennon? Celtic are looking at a 14-point deficit in the title race.

    Stevie May is given room to race away on the left and he drills a great, low ball into the middle and there is Chris Kane sliding in to knock the ball home from close range.

    Zander Clark has to change direction quickly as a low shot from David Turnbull is deflected towards the bottom corner of his goal.

    Ali McCann lets fly with a curling shot from 25 yards and it's dipping, but not enough to worry Celtic keeper Vasilas Barkas.

    David Turnbull dinks a pass into the penalty area and Leigh Griffiths takes it on his chest. As the striker waits for the ball to drop, Shaun Rooney gets across to knock the ball out for a corner.

    Christopher Jullien rises to meet the set-piece but his header is wide of the mark.

  14. YELLOW CARD - Wotherspoon (St Johnstone)published at 16:25 Greenwich Mean Time 6 December 2020

    Celtic 0-0 St Johnstone

    Free kick right on the edge of the St Johnstone box as David Wotherspoon fells Odsonne Edouard.

    The Frenchman hits a tame effort right into the defensive wall.

  15. Griffiths on for Celticpublished at 16:19 Greenwich Mean Time 6 December 2020

    Celtic 0-0 St Johnstone

    It's the change Pat Bonner was calling for, as Leigh Griffiths replaces skipper Scott Brown for Celtic.

  16. YELLOW CARD - Bryson (St Johnstone)published at 16:15 Greenwich Mean Time 6 December 2020

    Celtic 0-0 St Johnstone

    A high boot from Craig Bryson is punished as Celtic start to press with more intent.

  17. CLOSE!published at 16:14 Greenwich Mean Time 6 December 2020

    Celtic 0-0 St Johnstone

    Oh, nearly a breakthrough for Celtic as Christopher Jullien and Odsonne Edouard help on a corner and Nir Bitton can't make clean contact inside the six yard box.

    The ball comes off his shoulder and that allows Zander Clark to make the save, while Shaun Rooney hacks the ball away before Scott Brown can get there.

    The visitors remain compact and organised, while Celtic have shuffled things about at the back, with Kristoffer Ajer and Nir Bitton swapping over either side of Christopher Jullien.

    No goalmouth action to report...
