Events

Match Events

  • 0' That's the starting whistle at Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park. Ninety minutes of football awaits between Dundee FC and Celtic FC.
  • 5' 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 Tim Weah suffering a number of foals already.
  • 10' It looks surprising Celtic FC does not make any changes. Kristoffer Ajer has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
  • 15' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
  • 20' Ryan McGowan, a Australia , has 0 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 21' Ethan Robson catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 21.
  • 26' James Horsfield needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 0 Red cards this season.
  • 31' Celtic FC is showing some good football. However, Celtic FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 36' The travelling Celtic FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
  • 41' Dundee FC currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 46' The energy levels are beginning to show. Neil Lennon might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 51' Mikael Lustig has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 56' Celtic FC has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 1 of the last 1 meetings.
  • 59' Another change for Celtic FC made on 59 minute. Michael Johnston leaves to be changed by Jonny Hayes.
  • 64' Celtic FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 1 matches with its main striker Benjamin Nygren scoring 1 goals.
  • 69' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
  • 71' The Dundee FC manager makes a substitution. Kenny Miller departs to be replaced by Craig Curran.
  • 72' The whistle greets John O'Sullivan as he departs to be replaced by Jesse Curran.
  • 73' The crowd applauds Kristoffer Ajer as he leaves the pitch. Filip Benkovic steps in for Celtic FC.
  • 78' A change in the Celtic FC ranks — Jeremy Toljan exits the field as Tim Weah enters on 78.
  • 83' Celtic FC is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
  • 88' Dundee FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 90' Odsonne Edouard makes no mistake. The score reads 0-1 and Celtic FC are in front.
  • 90' Andy Dales gets the nod from Dundee FC. He replaces Scott Wright and will look to change the dynamic.
  • The referee brings this contest to a close. Celtic FC take all three points.
