    HT: Dundee 2-0 Celtic

    Dundee have been very, very good. Sharp in the tackle and solid at the back. Ethan Hamilton has put in a power of running and Cameron Congreve is a real threat with his impressive close control.

    Kelechi Iheanacho hit the post for Celtic and Kieran Tierney missed a great opportunity, but the visitors lack spark.

    That's that ball we've seen cause Celtic problems in this game but they hadn't quite had the finish.

    Congreve leaves Scales for dead and manages to put a fantastic ball across.

    Wow!

    Dundee double their lead with a great breakaway.

    Ethan Hamilton surges forward to release Cameron Congreve, who flashes in a low cross after some fancy footwork.

    Joe Westley gets something on it but it's Celtic defender Cameron Carter-Vickers with the final touch as the ball rolls home.

    It's been quite a performance [from Dundee] and one that I was not expecting this afternoon.

    It's not often you see a first-half booking for time-wasting but referee Matthew MacDermid runs out of patience with Dundee goalkeeper Jon McCracken.

    My mum is faster and more aware than Celtic just now and she’s 96! Rodgers needs to up his game - all this rubbish about sack the board is missing the point about third season Rodgers and how daft a signing Kieran Tierney was.

    This surely is the greatest chance for a long time for a team out with Glasgow to win the league. Celtic playing without confidence and, sorry to say, a manager who has his own argument with a very stubborn board. Round that off with disruptive protests that affect the team.

    Dundee are working so hard to protect their lead but they are falling deeper into their own half as Celtic try to build a head of steam.

    Kieran Tierney has his head in his hands after stabbing wide from a great position.

    The Celtic left-back got in behind the home defence but seemed a bit hesitant before shooting.

    From a Celtic point of view it is horrendous defending.

    It's been a magnificent start and the goal is thoroughly deserved for Dundee.

    I’m not sure what’s worse, the clueless Celtic board or the shower of narcissists throwing tennis balls on the pitch for their own satisfaction. Stay home kids, play with your bats and balls there.

    Gordon

    If I wanted to see tennis balls, I’d watch Wimbledon. Protests can be respectable, but only when it’s for issues that matter. Fans of a club that win countless trophies stopping the match ‘in protest’ for fans who spend their own time and money to watch isn’t respectable.

    Dundee defender Clark Robertson is left alone to nod home from a corner.

    A lovely header from the centre-half but he gets away from Cameron Carter-Vickers far too easily.
