Review
Kenny Dalglish's last minute goal rescues Celtic.
An enthralling and decent game with both sides looking for the win.
In the first half Thistle played 5-4-1 and were not interested in attack but after half time they showed more adventure and equalised through Prudham after Deans had opened the scoring with a close-in header in the second half..
Houston was ordered off for dissent with 13 minutes remaining having already picked up a yellow in the first half, and Celtic began to find more space. Dalglish snatched a dramatic winner in the final minute after Steve Murray had found him in the area.
