    Time:90'
    • Heart of Midlothian
    • Celtic
    • 90+4' And that's the final whistle at Tynecastle too, with Celtic beating Hearts 2-1 thanks to a wonder-goal from Zheng Zhi
    • 85' Celtic happy to kill the game now, running it to the corner, and playing for possession
    • 81' Celtic have a freekick wide left, which MacDonald manages to punch clear. It's all Celtic...
    • 72' And there's another! Kingston goes straight through McGeady, elbow first, and is lucky to still be on the pitch after that!
    • 70' It's fiery at Tynecastle, Thomson clatters into Aiden McGeady to pick up a yellow card. There's been plenty of tough challenges, and few goal-scoring opportunities so far
    • 60' GOAL CELTIC! WHAT A STRIKE BY ZHENG ZHI! The ball loops in to Zheng in the right channel. He brings it down with his back to goal, spins onto his left and with his second touch hits a sweet volley into the top corner!
    • 49' Scott Brown's back in the thick of things, battering through Jonsson for a deserved yellow
    • 47' Robbie Keane picks up the ball in space 20 yards out, and hits it to the top right corner! Just over!
    • 45' And Hearts kick-off at Tynecastle!
    • 42' Zaliukas goes on a jinking run down the left wing, beating two Celtic players with lightning-fast feet! He tries to beat one man too many though, and gifts possession away
    • 35' GOAL! HEARTS EQUALISE! Thomson sends a clever freekick to Marius Zaliukas, who wraps his right foot around it and fires low inside the near post! Wonderful effort, and not much Zaluska could do about that!
    • 34' Hearts break down the right with Thomson, who picks out Obua! GREAT SAVE BY ZALUSKA! Obua's header was looping inside the far post, but the Celtic keeper dive high with a wonderful one-handed save!
    • 29' Hearts aren't looking at all threatening at Tynecastle, passing the ball around faily toothlessly in the opening half hour. They're going to have to go up a few gears if they're to have any hope of retaining their European dream
    • 22' GOAL! CELTIC SCORE! Robbie Keane breaks clear of the Hearts backline to reach McGeady's ball, and cooly slots the ball past MacDonald to open the scoring!
    • 17' Brief handbags at Hearts, before Obua breaks clear down the left and loops in a decent cross! There's no one there though!
    • 10' Fortune makes looks lively for the visitors, and feeds Wilson on the edge of the box! Poorly controlled though, and Hearts regain possession
    • 5' Hearts getting a fair bit of time on the ball against Celtic. Caretaker-manager Neil Lennon has said that a statement will be issued immediately after the game regarding Tony Mowbray's successor at Celtic Park...

  • Summary

    • 60' GOAL CELTIC! WHAT A STRIKE BY ZHENG ZHI! The ball loops in to Zheng in the right channel. He brings it down with his back to goal, spins onto his left and with his second touch hits a sweet volley into the top corner!
    • 35' GOAL! HEARTS EQUALISE! Thomson sends a clever freekick to Marius Zaliukas, who wraps his right foot around it and fires low inside the near post! Wonderful effort, and not much Zaluska could do about that!
