Dane Murray is having an afternoon to forget in the Hoops. After being given the nod ahead of Auston Trusty in the centre of defence.
After a catastrophic own goal, it had been hoped that the 22-year-old may have banished the first half demons. Unfortunately, in the early stages of the second half, Murray pulled away from a Kyziridis strike before giving away a penalty.

Celtic now need to rally and dig deep if they are to salvage something. However, the hosts will be sure they have enough to see out the game and eight points clear at the top of the table.
