Celtic moved five points clear at the summit of the Scottish Premiership after a hitherto goalless game at Motherwell burst into life in astonishing fashion with three goals from the 87th minute.
Luis Palma's goal appeared to have given Celtic victory, but instead unleashed a chaotic final few minutes
Matt O'Riley scored a 97th-minute winner in the most dramatic of Scottish Premiership finales to give Celtic victory over a Motherwell side who thought they had salvaged a late point. Motherwell equalised after 95 minutes when Blair Spittal gathered inside the box, shuffled the ball onto his right foot and drilled a shot right into the corner to send the home crowd wild.
The game opened up after half-time and Lennon Miller thought he had bundled home the opener for the home side after Bevis Mugabi rose with Bain, but a VAR check concluded the defender had strayed offside.
