I know he's getting a lot of the ball because of the overload, but St Mirren don't know how to deal with him. His deliveries into the box and his willingness to get forward has been outstanding. St Mirren 1-1 Celtic Reo Hatate swings at another volley from just outside the penalty area and this time his on-target shot is blocked. St Mirren 1-1 Celtic Kheredine Idessane BBC Scotland at Hampden He's just scored a brilliant, crucial equaliser, slamming a volley into the bottom corner of the net at the national stadium to relieve a whole heap of pressure on his team-mates and manager. Absolutely no reaction from Reo Hatate whatsoever. The Japanese international, who's being played further forward, doesn't even crack a smile. Interesting. St Mirren 1-1 Celtic Amy Canavan BBC Sport Scotland at Hampden Park What a shift in this place. The Celtic fans - and team - have woken up. For the first time, they're somewhat on top here after a superb start from St Mirren. St Mirren 1-1 Celtic Pat Bonner Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound We talked about the importance of getting crosses into the box. Nobody picked up Reo Hatate but it was a really good ball bent in from Kieran Tierney. A really good finish. Reo Hatate A cracker! Celtic have been turning the screw, with Marcus Fraser booked for a trip on Daizen Maeda. Kieran Tierney then lefts a smart cross into the penalty area and a sliding Reo Hatate meets it on the volley to steer the ball into the corner of the net. St Mirren the new Corner Fc The new Arsenal Craig Time to crack the glass of the 'In Case of Emergencies' case and re-release Martin O'Neill. Totally unacceptable for Celtic to switch off so early, and Xmas gift St Mirren. Simon Watching the game in an Irish bar in Berlin. The wife might see me home before half-time!

Perfect storm for Nancy! Paul Nancy is out hiding depth. Tactics that don't suit the team. I know it is ridiculous to sack a manager after three games but I don't see this pattern changing Darren St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Liam Scales with nice pass for Daizen Maeda to cut the ball back from the byeline. However, three St Mirren defenders make sure a man in green and white can't get the final touch. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Steven Thompson Former Rangers striker on BBC Sportsound I think Maeda has got to score. I know he's thrown himself at it a wee bit but he should be hitting the target. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Liam Scales curls in a tempting cross for Kelechi Iheanacho and Dazien Maeda to attack. It's the latter who makes contact right in front of goal but the ball spins well wide. Tyreece John-Jules' goal has Kilmarnock deservedly in front at Pittodrie. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Amy Canavan BBC Sport Scotland at Hampden Park Celtic are all over the shop. Complete chaos from the champions. Their fans are furious. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Steven Thompson Former Rangers striker on BBC Sportsound Celtic are making mistakes and whenever St Mirren's front two are on top of them they look really nervous. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic The Celtic boss might have lost his cool there, as Jonah Ayunga slides a first-time shot just past the post. Aberdeen 0-1 Kilmarnock A big chance for Kilmarnock to double their lead as Bruce Anderson races clean through on the counter-attack. The former Aberdeen man shoots low and hard, but Dimitar Mitov gets down to make the save. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Amy Canavan BBC Sport Scotland at Hampden Park Wilfred Nancy cuts a very nonchalant figure. Hands in pockets and unmoved, even when Celtic lose possession again. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Kheredine Idessane BBC Scotland at Hampden Again, Nancyball is in its absolute infancy. However, there's a trend emerging already. Not great defending corner kicks. That's the third goal conceded directly from a corner in as many games under the Frenchman. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Liam Scales fails with two attempts to deal with a long ball and is then overpowered by Jonah Ayunga but the St Mirren striker takes far too long to get a shot off and his effort is deflected behind. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Pat Bonner Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound That was a really good ball, a deep cross. Kelechi Iheanacho using his power in the air to get a header in but what a fantastic save. St Mirren 1-0 Celtic Kelechi Iheanacho gets up well to bang a header on target and it needs a smart, diving stop from Shamal George to keep it out. Match report to appear here.
