SCOTT Brown against Kilmarnock… 91 minutes. Odsonne Edouard against Hearts… 92 minutes. Edouard again against Dundee… 95 minutes.
In the space of a month, Celtic recorded three dramatic away wins with last-gasp goals – the latest of them coming on Sunday at Dens Park to extend the Scottish champions’ lead at the top of the SPFL table to 10 points.
