    Andy Halliday

    Falkirk have been good, they've taken the game to Celtic. The difference has been Daizen Maeda. His energy is incredible.

    It's been the Daizen Maeda show!

    What a good finish!

    It was started by that man Maeda again, winning the ball back in a critical area and playing it into his path.

    Tierney hits it with real pace.

    Kieran Tierney

    Daizen Maeda steals the ball from Falkirk again and sets Kieran Tierney on his way.

    The Scotland full-back then crashes in an unstoppable shot!

    The ball is a blur as it goes in under the crossbar.

    Brad Spencer loops a deep cross into the mixer from a short corner and Dylan Tait is first to it. He skews the ball well wide from a very promising position.

    Oh dear. What a horrible moment for Keelan Adams.

    The Falkirk defender needs to clear his head after that costly error.

    Celtic 1-0 Falkirk

    Daizen Maeda has another go. This time it's an easy save for Nicky Hogarth.

    Falkirk fly up the park and a hooked volley from Calvin Miller spins wide - not by much.

    Quite incredible. How many times have we seen Daizen Maeda do that?

    The tenacity and the speed to go and close people down.

    He gets his reward for it.

    Daizen Maeda

    Keelan Adams is guilty of giving the ball away as the last man and Daizen Maeda is alert enough to send the ball beyond the stranded Nicky Hogarth.

    Adams bashed his attempted clearance against the Celtic forward, who then lashed a low effort in from a long way out.

  12. 'Celtic link-up lacking'published at 17:59 BST

    Celtic 0-0 Falkirk

    Pat Bonner
    Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC Sportsound

    Looking at Celtic, they build the game quite well.

    It goes to the full-backs and out to the wingers, but there is no link-up into the centre forward.

    That piece is missing and it has been for a long time this season.

    Now Nicky Hogarth makes a good, diving save to keep out a long-range effort from Anthony Ralston.

    Celtic 0-0 Falkirk

    Another scare for Celtic as a curling delivery from Leon McCann skids across the face of goal and takes a wee nick on its way out for a corner.

  15. GREAT SAVE!published at 17:53 BST

    Celtic 0-0 Falkirk

    Yang Hyun-Jun gives the ball away carelessly in his own half and Falkirk are in.

    Brad Spencer has a crack at the dropping ball and Viljami Sinisalo needs to look lively to push the shot away.

    Arne Engels has a pop from 20 yards but the Celtic midfielder's shot zooms high over the target.

    First corner to Celtic after 16 minutes... Benjamin Nygren swings it in but the visitors deal with it easily.

    A swift attack down the left for Celtic but Daizen Maeda has a fresh air swing at the ball once it's delivered low into the penalty area.

    Just as Ian makes that point, stats pop up on the telly telling us these teams lead the way for stealing the ball at the top end of the pitch.

  20. 'Hectic stuff'published at 17:41 BST

    Celtic 0-0 Falkirk

    Ian McCall
    Former Falkirk manager on BBC Sportsound

    The number of turnovers after seven or eight minutes is unbelievable.

    It's hectic, it's 100 miles an hour.

    You can still be composed and play at that pace, but neither side are showing that right now.
