Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Dundee FC gets underway.
- 5' Dundee FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
- 10' Both keepers have barely been tested. Dundee FC and Celtic FC are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
- 15' With 0 assists to his name this season, Jack Hamilton is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Dundee FC.
- 20' Celtic FC is taking the lead after the goal scored by Tom Rogic on 20.
- 25' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Jesse Curran suffering a number of foals already.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 33' What a strike from Scott Sinclair! The score is 0-2.
- 33' Ryan Inniss catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 33.
- 38' James Forrest does the damage! The net is bulging and Celtic FC surge ahead!
- 43' Australia international Daniel Arzani has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 1 assists in the Array this season.
- 45' A goal from the France international Odsonne Edouard! He fires home on 45 to make it 0-4!
- 45' The crowd applauds Benjamin Kallman as he leaves the pitch. Sofien Moussa steps in for Dundee FC.
- 46' The Dundee FC bench stirs into life. Ryan Inniss is withdrawn and Andy Boyle gets his opportunity.
- 47' A goal from the France international Odsonne Edouard! He fires home on 45 to make it 0-5!
- 48' What a strike from Ryan Christie! The score is 0-6.
- 51' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Roarie Deacon.
- 54' The referee has no hesitation. Darren O'Dea is booked for Dundee FC — Yellow card on 54.
- 57' Lewis Morgan has so much to prove this time. He replaces Tom Rogic on 57 minute.
- 62' Celtic FC come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
- 67' The travelling Celtic FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 69' Jack Lambert is replacing Roarie Deacon for the Dundee FC side.
- 70' The whistle greets Dedryck Boyata as he departs to be replaced by Kristoffer Ajer.
- 75' It’s a booking for Dundee FC player. Jesse Curran gets a Yellow card.
