Celtic seemed to take their foot off the pedal in the second half and Tolka had a number of excellent shots brilliantly saved by Celtic keeper Andy Cunningham and one effort headed off the line by Adam Neto. At the other end, Celtic had a number of chances, including Nomah's strike which thundered back off the crossbar, while lazy play saw other opportunities go a-beggin'. Owen Akpiama did complete his hat-trick with close range efforts set up by Ugi Roland and Robert Lynch. MORE MATCH ACTION
