Celtic battled back from 2-0 down at home to Rangers, only for a last-gasp screamer from Hamza Igamane to snatch a 3-2 victory.
Scorers: Raskin 4', Diomande 37', Igmane 88'; Maeda 49', Hatate 74'
Rangers took an early lead through a simple but effective set piece, Nicolas Raskin getting in front of his marker at the near post from a James Tavernier corner and heading home.
Not long before the break, the away side doubled their advantage when Mohamed Diomande took down a flick on inside the box under very little pressure from the Celtic defence and picked his spot with a composed finish.
As the second half began, Celtic found themselves a way back into the game as Jota dinked the ball to the far post for Daizen Maeda to jump highest and power the header home.
With just over 15 minutes to go, Brendan Rodgers' men got themselves back on level pegging, when Luke McCowan played a perfect through ball to Reo Hatate, who slotted home the finish.
But the game would take another dramatic twist, as Rangers struck with just two minutes of the game remaining, Hamza Igamane smashed home a winner right into the top corner.
Rangers only took a small dent in Celtic's lead at the top with the lead still standing at 13 points, but pride will certainly have been dented at Celtic Park.
