Off form Celtic came from behind to beat Ross County 2-1 to maintain top place in the SPFL Premiership and their 100% record.
Stretching back into last season the hoops have now won 13 consecutive SPFL matches since a 3-3 draw at Ibrox at the start of April.
Celtic fell behind to a retaken penalty from Ronan Hale in the 43rd minute and never really took control of the match until after the hour mark when Luke McCowan, Paulo Bernardo and Kyogo Furuhashi were brought off the bench.

After forcing County back the equaliser arrived from a corner in the 75th minute. Goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw pushed away a header from Kyogo Furuhashi, the rebound fell to Callum McGregor whose shot was deflected into the net off Alistair Johnston’s hip.
With three minutes left to play Johnston sent Nicolas Kuhn free down the right wing, the German cut inside to slot a low left foot shot into the net before celebrating with the relieved fans in the away end.
