Celtic climbed back to the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League after a nervy 2-1 win over spirited Dundee United at Parkhead.
A first-half header from defender Glenn Loovens and a deflected Georgios Samaras strike seven minutes after the break had appeared to take the game beyond the Tannadice men who had, at times, out-passed the champions.
However, Craig Levein's side showed commendable spirit and David Robertson's strike after 57 minutes ensured a tension-filled end to the game.
But the champions hung on, doggedly at times, and are now a point ahead of rivals Rangers - who play Hibernian at Easter Road on Wednesday night.
It was a far from convincing performance from Gordon Strachan's side but they will care little and all the pressure returns to the blue side of Glasgow.

Dear All...you will need to excuse Paul G puberty beckons and the hormones are all over the place....
2 - WHWEN DID GBH BECOME A CRIMINAL OFFENCE IN SCOTLAND? I THINK YOU WILL FIND THAT GBH IS A CHARGE APPLICABLE IN ENGLAND AND WALES! AND CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, BUT ISN'T EDU ABLE TO WALK AND CONTINUE HIS DAILY ACTIVITIES WITHOUT HANDICAP? HARDLY GRIEVOUS, IS IT?
Like MARC says cmon the hibees give Gordon and the Gang Four In a Row
where is the justice, loovens should be in jail for GBH after he attempted to break the leg of edu during the recent humping they got at ibrox. but as usual, they get away with it again. michael angelo could not even paint a red face on the little cabbage patch doll they have as a manager. but long may he stay at the piggery
mon the hibees get a result for the hoops
