Scottish Round up:Celtic survived an enthusiastic second-half comeback from Kilmarnock at Rugby Park to stay top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League.
A first-half double from in-form striker Scott McDonald gave the home side what looked like an unassailable lead.
However, following a double substitution at the break which saw Gary Locke and Craig Bryson replace Willie Gibson and Jamie Hamill, Frazer Wright scored 10 minutes after the restart to set up a thrilling finale.
Both sides then had a number of chances with Killie's closest effort coming when Stephen McManus blocked a goal-bound effort from Colin Nish but Celtic managed to hold on.

Elsewhere Sone Aluko's first goal for Aberdeen and a 25-yard drive in stoppage time from Lee Miller handed the Dons a deserved 2-0 success over nine-man Dundee United.
On-loan Birmingham player Aluko gathered a pass from Derek Young in the 45th minute before ghosting past a stranded Darren Dods and supplying a composed finish.
United's best chance came just before the interval but Jordan Robertson dragged his shot wide and any comeback hopes for the visitors - who remain the closest challengers to the Old Firm duo - ended with the dismissals of Barry Robson and Lee Wilkie.
Those red cards both came in the closing minutes, before Miller's fine strike.
Motherwell and St Mirren were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw at Fir Park.
