Dundee United 2-1 Celtic
A dramatic last-gasp winner from Darren Dods gave Dundee United their first victory over Celtic in 10 years as they won 2-1 at Tannadice.
Former Tangerines midfielder Barry Robson gave the Bhoys the lead on 71 minutes as he sent Nicky Weaver the wrong way from the penalty spot after being tripped by Dods.
But with seven minutes remaining Jon Daly, on for Damian Casalinuovo to play his first competitive game since April following a knee injury, headed the equaliser from Danny Swanson's corner before Dods nodded home the winner with seconds remaining to leave the Hoops stunned.
Defeat means the Bhoys remain a point behind their Old Firm rivals Rangers at the top of the SPL table.
Celtic boss Tony Mowbray said: "I felt there was a huge gulf in quality and class between the two teams and yet they scored from two set-plays.
"Whether they can continue to score from set-plays, I don't know.
"I don't think we got what we deserved from the game but if you don't defend your set-plays properly, then goals are what the game is about.
"But generally, for about 85 minutes, I think it was one-way traffic."
Conterpart Craig Levein said: "He is entitled to his view of the game the same as I am and I didn't think we played very well but how many saves did Nicky Weaver make in the first half?
"I've played against Celtic in the past where the keeper has had to make wonder saves and we have still been 3-0 down at half time.
"Then, I would have said there was a gulf in class - but not today."
