Review

Dalglish grabs the vital winner with a fine header in the second half.
Celtic huffed and puffed over this one. Eventually Davie Hay swapped positions with Callaghan and things started to happen. The move for the goal started from Jinky and through to Steve Murray who crossed from the left and Dalglish headed home. Harry Hood had to be subbed by Paul Wilson after an injury.
