    Anthony Ralston goes on a big mazy run right across the penalty area and the ball breaks to Adam Montgomery on the left. His shot from a tight angle is pushed away by Craig Gordon.

    Gordon is then at full-stretch to push away a lovely curling effort from Callum McGregor.

    FT: Arbroath 2-2 St Johnstone

    Ian Ballantyne went close for Arbroath a few moments ago but teams can't be separated and now Arbroath and St Johnstone will go to penalties.

    With 20 minutes remaining, the Celtic pace has dropped a little, allowing Hearts to get forward.

    The visitors win a corner but cannot profit from it.

    Kyogo Furuhashi just never stops running. Now he's swinging a cross in from the left for Odsonne Edouard to meet on the volley.

    Craig Gordon is there to save at the post this time.

    Great movement again. Furuhashi has been sharp, bright and always looking to go beyond. It's a reward for the work he has put in. But the ball may have been hitting the post until Gordon diverted it in.

    Kyogo Furuhashi

    The noise at Celtic Park had just dropped a bit after that Hearts goal but it's deafening again as Tom Rogic slides in Kyogo Furuhashi and the Japanese forward crashes a high shot past Craig Gordon at his near post.

    On second viewing, it looks like the fierce shot caught the glove of the busy Hearts keeper and that might just have diverted it on target.

    It was really important Hearts got in at half-time just 2-0 down. Now it's game on, even though Celtic have absolutely dominated.

    Now it's a one-goal game as Liam Boyce coolly sends Joe Hart the wrong way from the spot.

    That's Hearts' first shot on target.

    The League Cup holders are back in it with yet another corner providing a goal at Gayfield.

    Celtic cut Hearts open again and Kyogo Furuhashi is driving into the penalty area from the left but his progress is halted by a wonderful sliding tackle from Beni Baningime.

  15. CLOSE!published at 16:07 British Summer Time 15 August 2021

    Celtic 2-0 Hearts

    Hearts goalkeeper Craig Gordon is busy again as he claws away a deflected cross from Kyogo Furuhashi and then has to deal with an Odsonne Edouard header from the corner.

    Celtic come again and Gordon gets right behind a thundering shot from James Forrest at his near post before scrambling to the other post as the ball slip just wide.

    There was contact - Starfelt was tight - but not enough for Ginnelly to go down. Not a penalty.

    Josh Ginnelly goes for a dramatic belly flop in the penalty box. Referee John Beaton is not interested.

    Arbroath are back in front!

    Another corner causes St Johnstone's backline problems and this time Thomas O'Brien cracks the ball high into the net to put Dick Campbell's team on the cusp of a cup shock.

    Arbroath 1-1 St Johnstone

    We move into extra-time at Gayfield.

    Jon Nouble's first-half effort was cancelled out by Glenn Middleton's follow-up to a saved Jason Kerr penalty.

    Can the cup holders find a winner in the next 30 minutes?
