Celtic came from behind to salvage a point from Kilmarnock in their Scottish Premier League fixture in Glasgow on Tuesday.

The second-placed hosts trailed after 53 minutes when Irishman Conor Sammon beat the last defender before tucking his left-foot strike in at the near post past goalkeeper Fraser Forster.

Kilmarnock were heading towards an upset victory before Norwegian Thomas Rogne headed home at the back post to save face for Celtic.

The draw means the SPL powerhouses still trail Rangers by two points, with the league leaders holding a game in hand on their Old Firm rivals.

Kilmarnock remain in fifth place on the SPL table, one clear of Motherwell in sixth and three behind the fourth-placed Inverness.
