Celtic late show sinks Saints

26 December 2010 18:00
Celtic left it late to keep their Clydesdale Bank Premier League title challenge alive by scoring twice in injury time against St Johnstone at Parkhead to win 2-0. Cha Du-ri broke the deadlock with a drive from distance in the first of three added minutes tacked on to a woeful game. Then, in the last few seconds, fellow Korean Ki Sung-yueng scored a second to send the Hoops fans home happy and keep their side within two points of leaders Rangers, although the Light Blues have a game in hand. Celtic's fit-again skipper Scott Brown started for the first time since October. The midfielder had returned as a substitute against Kilmarnock in midweek after recovering from a foot injury but was one of three changes Neil Lennon made to his side.
