Relegation beckons when all it takes to undo 51 minutes of hard graft is a full-back without a goal in 165 games for club and country popping up to break the deadlock.

Further strikes from Pedro Neto and João Pedro added a more realistic look to the scoreline. Chelsea, who are up to second, were dominant. They took a while to get going but sprinted away once Gusto had settled their nerves. Continue reading...

Desmond calls Rodgers ‘misleading and self-serving’Manager resigns with club eight points behind HeartsThe scale of recent disharmony inside Celtic has come to light with the resignation of Brendan Rodgers. By way of immediate response the club’s main – and typically publicity-shy – shareholder, Dermot Desmond, has remarkably unleashed on what he branded “self-serving” behaviour by Rodgers. In a further dramatic twist and two decades after leaving the club, Martin O’Neill will return to take charge of Celtic on an interim basis.Celtic confirmed Rodgers had left his position shortly before 10pm on Monday.
