Review
More a question of how many Celtic would win by. They got off to a perfect start with Lennox scoring in the 4th minute after good worrk from Hughes and Gallacher. Hughes than addeed a secon and Celtic's 100th goal of the season was an own goal when Stewart attempted to clear a Lennox cross. Dundee pulled one back to make it 3-1 at the interval. Celtic started the same half as a mirror reflection of the first with Hughes scoring first then Lennox. McLean added another for Dundee to make the final score 5-2.
With both Celtic and Rangers winning, the order and lead stayed the same with Celtic one point ahead of Rangers having played one more game. Rangers HAD to win their game in hand.
