Review

Celtic hold their nerve after being 1-0 down for an hour.

McCluskey is Scotland's in form striker and young Danny Crainie is now an invaluable member of the team playing up front with McCluskey.

McCluskey's fine touch draws comparisons in the press with Celtic greats Malky MacDonald amd Willie Buchan.
