Two pictures have emerged highlighting the basic errors that led to Kilmarnock’s equaliser against Celtic.
An opportunist strike from Leigh Griffiths put the hoops in front midway through the first half in an encounter with few clear cut chances.
With 64 minutes played Kilmarnock equalised with a basic lack of shape about the Celtic players.
Some stills of the run up to their 1st goal, just as the ball is fed to Burke. Too many players drawn over to our right, leaving acres of space on the left side.

The first picture shows seven Celtic players within five yards of each other with Burke relatively isolated and only Kieran Tierney on the left side of the pitch.
For Kilmarnock’s winning goal Stuart Findlay was able to make a clear run across goal to glance in a header with no one on the back post.
The result leaves Celtic on ten points from six matches having already dropped the same amount of points as they did in the entire 2016/17 season.
Celtic are back in action on Wednesday night when they travel to Perth to take on St Johnstone for a place in the semi-final of the Betfred Cup.
