Review

Early encounters were even with both sides having chances. In the eigth minute McNeill had to go off with a leg strain coming back on in the 18th minute. Raith were getting some good attacks in and Celtic looked a little slow in comparison. WEven so it remained 0-0 at half time.
It took a while for Celtic to get going after Auld had been injured. It was old that took the ball for a walk before squaring to Mocan who fired home.
