Review
This was a cracking game with Burns and Stark putting Celtic in front before a strong Aberdeen fight back grabbed a point.
Jim Leighton made a brilliant save from a Tony Shepherd header, pushing it onto the crossbar, with the score at 2-0
With time up approaching Joe Miller's rising shot is a sickener for the Celticfans.
