Review
Celtic continue their fine spell of form with another emphatic victory.
Dundee went all out at the start to gain and early goal but once the Bhoys had weathered the storm they looked the better team. Doyle's first had a hint of offside but his second was a cracking header from a free kick and at 5-1 aggregate the fight went out of Dundee. In the second half Conn added a third after dispossessing Phillip.
