Dundee United have taken a 1-0 into half time after scoring early in their Scottish Premiership match against Celtic this afternoon.
Nadir Ciftci picked up a yellow card just 30 seconds into the tie for a heavy challenge on Scott Brown, but the striker made amends just a few minutes later by holding off Efe Ambrose to chip in from a Stuart Armstrong ball.
Radoslaw Cierzniak was needed down the other end a few minutes later as the Scottish champions looked for a quick equaliser, but James Forrest's low shot was an easy save.
John Guidetti tried to set up Stefan Johansen, but the United keeper was ready to make the save again, while Anthony Stokes sliced the ball high from the edge of the box.
Virgil van Dijk had an effort cleared off the line shortly before half time, while Forrest curled the ball in for Guidetti, but the Swedish striker's header was saved.
