Review

A last minute goal gives Celtic a draw in an extremely good game. There was a shade of doubt for offside on Walsh's first goal but Celtic should have had a penalty ion the second half when Fernie was brought down in the area. Swinbourne for Wolves was outstanding and fernie, going through a golden patch following his superb game against Rangers played extremely wel as did Collins and Mochan.
