Events

Match Events

  • 0' The game is set. Celtic FC kicks off things out of here…
  • 5' Eamonn Brophy has been relatively quiet despite scoring 41 goals in his last 272 appearances.
  • 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
  • 15' Both keepers have barely been tested. Celtic FC and Kilmarnock FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
  • 20' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 25' Kilmarnock FC started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 25.
  • 30' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Alex Dyer will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 35' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 36' Alan Power picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 41' It looks like no one’s ball. Kilmarnock FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 43' Nicke Kabamba is having his name booked by the referee on 43.
  • 48' Celtic FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 53' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Celtic FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
  • 57' Goal! Mohamed Elyounoussi scores his 28 goal in 362 matches.
  • 62' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Celtic FC and Kilmarnock FC are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 67' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Celtic FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 68' Kilmarnock FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Chris Burke is hanging Greg Kiltie on the field on 68 minute.
  • 69' The Celtic FC bench stirs into life. Jeremie Frimpong is withdrawn and Ryan Christie gets his opportunity.
  • 70' The Ireland defender Shane Duffy breaks the deadlock on 70 minutes. 2-0!
  • 75' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 79' The Kilmarnock FC manager makes a substitution. Nicke Kabamba departs to be replaced by Eamonn Brophy.
  • 81' Greg Taylor makes way for Diego Laxalt at the 81 minute mark. A tactical switch from Celtic FC.
  • 86' A tactical swap from Celtic FC — Michael Johnston on, Mohamed Elyounoussi off on 86 minutes.
  • Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Celtic FC players.
